The best city hikes and walks around Brzozów

Avenues of ornamental trees are more associated with a botanical garden or a castle park. In Krosno, such a natural wonder has recently been created in the vicinity of the Vivo shopping gallery, beautifully cutting through the parking lots surrounding the gallery. The trees are still growing, and one can imagine what a beautiful, flowery umbrella they will form in a few years.

The monument is located next to the papal cafe Papa Cafe and near the Sanctuary of St. John Paul II, personally consecrated by the Pope during his stay in Krosno. Being here, it is worth taking at least 10 minutes to walk around the church, because its surroundings have been prepared in a special way and there is a lot to see and think about. In case your blood sugar level drops, there are two cafes with a wide selection of unconventional cakes. WW

Full name of the monument: "To those who gave their lives to Poland 1939-1989". The monument was rebuilt after the end of the socialist system in Poland, supplementing the brick base with a stylized sculpture made of metal and expanding the list of victims to include the period of the so-called People's Republic of Poland. During this period (1944-1989), the socialist authorities proclaimed slogans of progress, equal rights, and the power of the working people of cities and villages, and quietly tortured and murdered their opponents who did not agree to the subordination of Poland to the Soviet Union, deprivation of private property, and harassment of the Church.

The new café is open in the basement of the church of Saint Peter and John of Dukla. Walking past it, you might not notice it if not for the advertising sign hidden in the bend of the church walls. Go down the long stairs; disabled people in wheelchairs do not have access here. The cakes are divided into two groups: with sugar and for dieters. The traditional cakes come from the neighboring Papa cafe. The unusual names are amazing, e.g. "Lazy mother-in-law" - a small and very sweet cake with caramel, mascarpone cheese and halva (see photo). The cakes for dieters include keto, vegan, gluten-free, lactose-free and sugar-free cakes. Two large rooms for consumption, young and friendly service. You can pay by card. Open except for Mondays.

A charming corner of the Krosno Old Town, hard to spot when exploring the city without a guide. Forteczna Street ends blindly at the back of the Department Store building, but you can turn to the side and take the stairs to the area of the Franciscan church. There is a paid parking lot at the bottom of Forteczna Street, but after 4 p.m. and on weekends you can park for free. This is a convenient place, located close to the historic city center. WW

The path starts at the parking lot next to Galeria Portius and leads along Niepodległości Street towards the bridge over the Wisłok River, where it lowers and joins the path along the river. The beautiful, intense colors of the surface attract attention. Initially, only the red cyclist lane is visible, and from the bridge next to the red one you can see the yellow pedestrian lane. We will see whether the colors will remain the same over the next few years. WW

The facility with a small garden is located in the corner of the Market Square, above the Town Hall. It mainly offers ice cream from a vending machine, of various types. On hot days, you can find some shade in this part of the Market Square, near the tenement houses. Plus, there's no busy road running through this corner, so it's quieter here. WW
