Kępa Potocka

Kępa Potocka is a river island in the Vistula with walking paths, cycling routes, sports facilities, and children's play areas throughout its grounds. The park stretches between the districts of Żoliborz and Marymont-Ruda, offering space for different recreational activities.

The island formed naturally through the movement and deposits of the Vistula River, creating an oxbow area in the landscape. During the 20th century, the land was gradually developed into a recreation space for the expanding city.

The park is a social gathering place where Warsaw residents come to jog, cycle, or spend time in nature with family and friends. It functions as a neighborhood hub where people of all ages use the paths and open spaces in their daily routines.

The best time to visit is from spring through autumn when the paths are dry and the weather is pleasant. You can reach the area by bus or commuter train, with Wilson Square station roughly a 15-minute walk away.

The Toruński bridge splits the park into two separate areas, each with its own network of paths and activity zones. This division creates two different experiences, though visitors can easily cross between them.
