The best city hikes and walks around Sanok

Today was my first time visiting this place. We waited less than 12 minutes for our pizza, and the prices were around 42-44 PLN (33 cm diameter), depending on the type. The dough was nicely risen, and there were plenty of toppings, so the three of us struggled to finish two pizzas. A quiet place, with quiet music in the background. The spacious space is located in the basement of the building, below street level, so there's less outside noise. The name "Oliwki 3" might suggest to someone from outside the city that it's located at number 3 Oliwki Street, but there's no such street nearby. 😀 WW

A small confectionery and ice cream parlor is an additional point of sale of the PIERZ confectionery located on Podgórze Street. Among the various cakes, I can recommend the traditional cream cake, current price PLN 4.80. There is very little space inside, but two chairs and a table have been arranged, and outside there is an openwork gazebo with chairs and a table. The location is very advantageous - by the promenade, which tourists and cyclists use from the Sanok castle and the Market Square towards the parish church or the bench of the soldier Švejk. The confectionery is open in the summer season: Mon - Fri 9:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. Sat 10:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. Sun 10:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. WW

In times long past, the Market Square in Sanok was an oasis of greenery in this part of the city. After the change of regime, the trees were cut down, and the Market Square was paved mostly in red, hence its name, Red Square. On hot days, the center of the square is unbearably hot. You can seek refreshment under the umbrellas where ice cream is sold, or by the fountain located closer to City Hall. Even better, stop by the Franciscan Church for a moment and find not only refreshment but also peace. WW

In the 1970s and 1980s, a housing estate was built between Śródmieście Sanok and the San River - a block of four-story buildings. The axes of this estate are Jana Pawła II Street and Traugutta Street. The first one is straight and straight, and the second one winds with gentle curves. At ul. A chapel was built near the Traugutt intersection. On May evenings, residents of nearby blocks gather there, praying together and singing Marian songs.

The stork's nest has been inhabited for years in the same place - on one of the chimneys of a two-story block of flats at ul. Mickiewicza. The busy intersection next to the building apparently doesn't bother the storks as they come back here. They are also not deterred by the artificial bird of prey placed on the adjacent chimney. 😀 WW

An entry ticket to permanent exhibitions costs PLN 25.

Rafting is organized by various companies, and the starting points I know are located on both sides of the Białogórski bridge and below this bridge on the right side of the river, near the sanitary airport. I strongly advise against using this attraction during the flooding of the San, which can be easily recognized by the brown color of the water. The broken branches of trees flow in the river then, and it is easy for misfortune, which we know as inhabitants of this area. The shortest route from Sanok leads to the nearby Międzybrodzie, and further ones to, for example, Dębna, Mrzygłód, Ulucz and Temeszów. There are also canoeing trips along the upper San on the section Zwierzyń - Lesko - Zagórz, i.e. above Sanok. Here are some rafting offers: https://greenponton.pl/ https://sanlis.pl/ https://wycieczki-bieszczady.pl/splyw-pontonowy-w-bieszczadach-rzeka-san/
