Jabłonna: Discover the Vistula Route and Palace Park
Accommodation in Jabłonna
Jabłonna offers two different ways to explore its surroundings: the landscape along the Vistula and the Palace Park with its natural monuments and historic buildings. The Vistula Route starts in Jabłonna and leads into a nature reserve; nature and cultural heritage take centre stage in the park. Which side you would like to get to know better can help determine the focus of your trip planning.
The Vistula Route along the Vistula
The blue, 15-kilometre Vistula Route starts at the sand pit in Jabłonna. It runs mostly along the embankment on the right bank of the Vistula, passes Jezioro Kiepura and then enters the Ławice Kiełpińskie Nature Reserve. The reserve includes islands, sandbanks and the banks of the Vistula. The route thus connects a starting point in Jabłonna with a described stretch along the Vistula and entry into the protected area.
You can also choose how to get around: the nature trails in the municipality of Jabłonna can be explored on foot or by bicycle. These options apply to the municipality’s nature trails as a whole. The Vistula Route starts at the sand pit, passes Jezioro Kiepura and leads into the Ławice Kiełpińskie Nature Reserve.
Palace Park: Natural Monuments and Historic Buildings
The English-style landscape park surrounding the palace covers 46 hectares. Its more than 50 natural monuments include English oaks, small-leaved lime trees, English elms, common ash trees, hornbeams, honey locusts, European larches, white poplars and Norway maples. The diversity of tree species gives the park a distinctive natural focus, while its historic park buildings offer another way to appreciate the ensemble.
The surviving buildings in the landscape park include a grotto, an orangery and a Chinese pavilion. The Palace Park is open to all visitors; check the current visiting arrangements before your visit. If you would like to explore Jabłonna mainly outdoors, you can make the park a focus of your trip, whether or not you also plan to take a guided tour.
Guided Tours, Nature Trail and Parkrun
The palace and park complex currently serves as a conference and meeting centre for the Polish Academy of Sciences. Tourist groups can visit the palace, underground rooms, park and orangery with a guide; advance booking is required. If you are planning a group visit, check current availability with the palace. Exhibitions are held in the orangery.
Weekly parkrun events take place in Jabłonna. Check the current schedule when planning a visit. There is also a nature trail, originally created more than 20 years ago and later modernised. These different activities offer you a range of ways to experience Jabłonna: a guided tour for groups, a visit to the park or an opportunity to explore nature and the landscape.
To decide what you would like to discover in Jabłonna, a simple comparison can help: the Vistula Route leads from the town past Jezioro Kiepura into a protected area; in the Palace Park, a diverse range of tree species sits alongside historic park buildings and cultural visitor attractions.
