Łagiewniki Forest
Las Łagiewnicki
A native forest of about 1,200 hectares on the northern edge of the city, one of the largest forests within a European city’s boundaries, home to a Franciscan monastery.
Łagiewniki Forest lies within the northern city limits of Łódź, covering about 1,200 hectares. It contains cycling and hiking trails, ponds and a small wooden chapel. The Franciscan monastery on the forest edge dates from the 18th century and is a local pilgrimage site. Nearby, the Arturówek recreation area offers boating and barbecue spots. Entry is free.
