Kryspinów, Village in Lesser Poland, Poland
Kryspinów is a village in Lesser Poland located roughly 12 kilometers west of Kraków within Gmina Liszki. The settlement is marked by water bodies that formed from former sand mining operations in the surrounding area.
The village developed in an area where sand extraction was a longstanding activity, shaping the local landscape over time. These mining sites gradually became the lakes that characterize the area today.
The village maintains rural character while its residents work and study in nearby Kraków, creating a blend of agricultural traditions and urban connections.
The village has basic accommodation options available for visitors wanting to stay overnight. The lakes are most accessible during warmer months when water-based activities are possible.
The two lakes were created from former sand mining pits and now serve as recreation spots for people from Kraków and surrounding areas. Their formation demonstrates how industrial activities can unexpectedly transform into recreational landscapes.
