Some of the best running in the center of Wrocław is along the Promenada Staromiejska, a lovely walkway bordering the Fosa Miejska, Wrocław’s former moat. The moat has been converted into a lively green park, with numerous asphalt and cobblestone paths. As the most front and center path, Promenada Staromiejska runs about 2.5 km from Pl. Jana Pawła II station to Galeria Dominikańska station, passing through Park Staromiejski and Park Wzgórze. The path is the nicest option for an out and back, but runners can also form a loop on the sidewalk of Powale or bulwar Tadka Jasińskiego.

Other Routes in Wrocław, Poland
Old Town Wrocław is historic, compact, and pedestrian friendly, making it a great running location to explore the sights of the city. Our 6.8 and 13 km routes visit Market Square, parks, and waterfront paths.
There are multiple running paths along the River Oder, which cuts through central Wroclaw. Some of the best options begin at Wyspa Słodowa Park and Park Biskupiński, which also hosts a Parkrun.
Sprawling Szczytnicki Park offers numerous running paths, including a 5.7 km perimeter loop and stretches along the beautiful Japanese Gardens and Multimedia Fountain.
Stara Odra, a branch of the River Oder, is another top running option with extensive pathways along the levee. We’ve mapped a “Three Bridges” route from the center of town, and one along the Pasterska/Hatzfeld Weg pathway.
Kanalowa, the dirt trail along the banks of Kanal Powodziowy, is a nice route as an out and back of its own or in combination with the Odra River and Stara Odra paths. A good loop is out the Kanalowa and back along the Folwarczna.
Though somewhat disconnected in sections, the path along the west bank of the Ślęza River, stemming from Millennium Park, is a good bet for a longer run on a dirt and asphalt surface.
Pleasant, wooded Grabiszynski Park southwest of Wroclaw center has various running options, including a paved/cement path along the Grabiszynska and connections to the Ślęza River and path to Tysiąclecia Park.
