Ciechocinek is not just famous Graduation Towers. The true green heart of the town is the Spa Park in Ciechocinek, which is the largest spa park in Poland.
This is where the pulse of the resort beats, where the most important concerts take place, and where tourists admire unique vegetation.
Planning a visit to the spa town? Check out what this historic complex holds and why it is worth staying in its immediate vicinity. Discover the Spa Park in Ciechocinek.
History and famous flower carpets in Ciechocinek
Founded in the 19th century, the park today covers an area of as much as 19 hectares. Although its layout has changed over the years, its greatest fame comes from the designs of Zygmunt Hellwig from the interwar period. It is to him that we owe the famous flower carpets.
This is the hallmark of the Spa Park. Intricately arranged compositions made from thousands of seedlings (including begonias, pansies, and marigolds) create different, stunning patterns each year. Walking along the main alley of the park is a must for everyone visiting Ciechocinek. The best view of the flowerbeds stretches along the main alley, leading from Grzybek deeper into the park.
Spa Park in Ciechocinek – what to see?
Walking along the paths, it is worth paying attention to the objects that create the unique atmosphere of this place. Here are the key points on the park map:
- Grzybek Fountain – not just a decoration, but above all a natural inhaler. The fountain draws water from a depth of over 400 meters, dispersing iodine-rich brine around. It is the perfect place for the first deep breath at the spa.
- Concert Shell – a beautiful example of Zakopane-style architecture. In summer it is full of life, hosting numerous festivals and spa orchestra concerts.
- Mineral Water Drinking Hall (Kursaal) – a historic building with a characteristic veranda, reminding of the former glory of the resort.
- Natural Monuments – dendrology enthusiasts will find rare tree species here, including the mighty pedunculate oak "Konstanty".
Active rest and regeneration in the Park
The Spa Park is an ideal place for those who appreciate physical activity. The vast area, flat alleys, and shade of old trees create excellent conditions for jogging, walking or Nordic walking. A morning workout in such surroundings, with birdsong, works better than a cup of coffee.
And after physical activity? It is worth taking care of the body. Guests of Villa Park Med & Spa, located right at the park entrance, can smoothly move from the walking path straight to the wellness zone.
Where to eat and relax near the Spa Park?
Sightseeing and outdoor walks can sharpen the appetite. Many people wonder where to find good cuisine without leaving the spa area.
The answer lies in the heart of the park. Our restaurant at Villa Park Med & Spa is a place where you can combine a culinary feast with a view of greenery. We serve Polish cuisine in a modern style, and the proximity of the Spa Park means that after lunch you can immediately return to relaxing in nature. It is an excellent choice both for a quick lunch during sightseeing and a romantic dinner.
