The lake and wooden path are right next to the main asphalt road, just drive about 50 meters between the houses

Extra collision-free crossing at the intersection with the ring road. When going with children, you need to be careful not to get too carried away on the ramps.

There's no need to elaborate on who Krzysztof Krawczyk was. It's a great location near the train station, on an equally beautiful and peaceful promenade.
