Starganiec

Starganiec is a water reservoir in Mikołów that stretches into an elongated shape surrounded by grassy banks. The water sits in a depression formed by the surrounding terrain and provides several points where visitors can reach the shoreline.

The site originated in the mid-1800s on former sand quarry grounds and was later used as a recreation area for steelworks employees. Over time it evolved from an extraction site into a public gathering place for the region.

The place draws its name from the local area and serves as a gathering spot where people spend leisure time near the water. The surrounding trails connect visitors to different parts of the region.

You can reach the site by road or public bus, with stops near the location. Wear sturdy shoes if you plan to walk the paths around the water.

The area was recently transformed into a modern bathing facility with new amenities for visitors wanting to spend time at the water. This renovation turned it into a contemporary leisure center meeting current standards.
