 Przystań Kalisz - the Kalisz Harbor

The Kalisz Harbor is a place where you can rent a pedal boat, kayak or SUP board and admire Kalisz from the level of the Prosna River. The navigable section of the Prosna River leads through the City Park, but you can also sail towards the Most Kolejowy, where the Prosna has a natural feel and you can experience a wilder side of the river.
The Harbor also hosts many additional events such as sailing regattas, motorboat training, first aid training, knight combat training, events for children, etc.

The rental shop offers 10 pedal boats, two kayaks, two SUP boards.

This recreation is very safe. Each person going on a cruise on the Prosna River is equipped with an individually fitted safety vest, ensuring buoyancy in case of an accidental fall overboard.

The City Park

The Kalisz City Park is the oldest public parks in Poland. It was established in 1798 on the grounds of the post-Jesuit gardens. Initially it was used by the students of the nearby Cadet Corps, but soon became the “garden” of all Kalisz residents. One of its greatest appeals is its location. Just next to the busy city center we have an oasis of greenery, peace and quiet, and the aesthetic value of the city's summer living room is enhanced by the fact that it is surrounded, like few others in Poland, by the waters - the Prosna River and its tributaries, and decorated with rare specimens of trees and shrubs and small park architecture. Together with the so-called New Park, located on the other side of the Prosna River, it covers an area of about 30 hectares. Perfect for a leisurely stroll, a bike ride or a picnic on a sunny day.
