Promenada Ełcka

Promenada Ełcka is a waterfront path along Lake Ełckie with separate routes for pedestrians, cyclists, and roller skaters. The path features seating areas and lighting throughout, running continuously along the water's edge.

The waterfront lay neglected for decades after World War II until the city began redevelopment efforts in 2001. This transformation gradually brought the lakeside back to public use.

Wooden sculptures of Polish rulers stand along the central section, creating visual markers as you walk. The space draws both locals and visitors who use it regularly for leisure and outdoor gatherings.

The promenade begins near Grunwaldzka Street and connects to hiking trails, cycling routes, and kayaking areas. Wear comfortable shoes and allow time to walk different sections at your own pace.

A green bridge crosses the Ełk River and leads to the Ecological Education Center with its lake museum. This bridge connects the promenade to spaces dedicated to teaching visitors about the local environment.
