Summer on the Warta and relaxation in Grunwald – discover the attractions of Poznań in 2026

Summer in Poznań is a completely different city. The banks of the Warta come alive, bike routes fill with cyclists, and new urban investments provide more opportunities to spend time outdoors. In 2026, a new addition to the list of reasons to visit Poznań for a weekend or longer is the new swimming pool in Grunwald – long-awaited by residents of the entire western part of the city. If you're planning a summer trip to the capital of Greater Poland, now you have even more options for enjoyable time in the city.

Berdychowskie Bridges – pedestrian and bicycle route across the Warta

The Berdychowskie Bridges are a pedestrian and bicycle crossing connecting Chwaliszewo, Ostrów Tumski, and Berdychowo – two elegant steel bridges with a combined length of nearly 300 meters that quickly became one of the most recognizable spots in the city. Tens of thousands of bicycle rides were recorded on them within the first few months after opening, and the European Cyclists' Federation awarded the investment in the Bicycle Infrastructure category.

In summer, the bridges are a natural point on every bike route along the Warta. For tourists staying in the city center, they offer a convenient connection between the Old Market Square and recreational areas by Malta without having to use crowded streets. Apartments near the Berdychowskie Bridges, i.e., around Wenecjańska, Towarowa, or Rybak streets, provide direct access to this entire infrastructure. This is especially good news for those planning an active weekend with the bike as the main means of transport.

Grunwald Swimming Pool and Saunarium – a new place for regeneration in Poznań

One of the largest sports investments in Poznań in 2026 is the new Grunwald Municipal Swimming Pool on Taborowa Street, which replaced the long-standing Olimpia pool. The facility is opening at the end of May and will offer an eight-lane 25-meter sports pool, a recreational pool with two basins, and a jacuzzi. Complementary facilities include fitness and rehabilitation rooms.

A true novelty is the saunarium – a zone of over 400 m² opening in summer as a separate part of the facility with an independent entrance. It will feature: a large Finnish sauna, bio sauna, steam bath, infrared sauna, saltarium with a small brine graduation tower, a relaxation area with loungers and a salt wall, and a cooling pool.

For guests looking for holiday apartments in Poznań with access to a wellness zone, it is also worth remembering the City Park apartments on Wyspiański Street – the complex offers a pool and saunas directly in the facility.

Warta, Malta, and cycling – how to plan an active weekend in Poznań?

Routes along the Warta, crossing the Berdychowskie Bridges, the Malta Lake with Malta Thermal Baths, and an extensive network of bike paths in the city center create a coherent infrastructure that can be used without a car. Cyclist-friendly apartments in the center of Poznań – with bike storage and a convenient location – are now a standard worth looking for when booking. Malta Thermal Baths is a proven spot on the map of summer activities thanks to outdoor pools, slides, and the possibility of renting water equipment.

Apartment rental in Poznań for the holidays – what to pay attention to?
