Company picnics in the shade of Park Slaski
It is hard to name a place in the region as naturally made for outdoor events as Chorzows Park Slaski. Sweeping meadows, woods and alleys, the largest city park in the country, form a setting you cannot recreate on a closed car park or a hotel lawn. When we organise company picnics in Chorzow, we most often begin right here, because the park runs its own land-leasing department and lets you rent expansive clearings, such as Konska Laka, for the stage, catering tents and an activity zone. One estate, with everything a good outdoor event needs within walking distance.
The strength of this location is the concentration of attractions in one complex. A stone amphitheatre adorned with dancer sculptures offers a ready, acoustically refined stage for a concert or the formal part. The Regatta Canal turns the programme into a waterside adventure, with kayaks, boats and pedalos as an attraction that sells itself. In summer the modernised Fala bathing site adds an artificial wave and slides, while teams after a dose of adrenaline can head to the Silesia Rope Park with zip lines and a separate mini-course for the youngest.
Park Slaski clearings: one address, every kind of picnic
The heart of the offer is the open meadows of the park with their own land-leasing department. They hold the main stage, catering tents and a spacious activity zone, with the Regatta Canal and the amphitheatre within a short walk. For larger groups we stage the day on clearings such as Konska Laka, where there is room for a stage, catering and activities, surrounded by waterside and family attractions.
A family day in the Chorzow park carries a rarely matched family component. The Silesian Zoo, the neighbouring Legendia amusement park and the historic Silesian Planetarium mean an employee with children need not choose between an event and a shared day. It is all linked by the Elka cable car, running a mixed system of gondolas and chairs; a scenic ride over the zoo and the Valley of Dinosaurs is a ready idea for a company photo contest no ordinary clearing could host.
Intimate alternatives away from the busy park centre
Not every integration has to be large. For intimate gatherings we turn to ground beyond the strict park centre: the revitalised Amelung ponds with their water cascade and jetties, or Dolina Gornika in Maciejkowice, where two reservoirs joined by a canal and a prepared fire pit call out for an evening bonfire with your own food. On a rise in the eastern part of the city, the park on Gora Wyzwolenia offers shaded, quiet alleys ideal for a calm picnic for a smaller team.
A separate mood comes from the Upper Silesian Ethnographic Park, an open-air museum of historic timber architecture that runs outdoor events with craft demonstrations and workshops. The logistics of such an outdoor event are our job from start to finish: the stage and sound, shelter against fickle weather, catering scaled to the group, childrens entertainment and the running of the contest segment all sit with us.
Frequently asked
For larger groups we favour the clearings of Park Slaski, such as Konska Laka. The park runs its own land-leasing department, there is room for the stage, catering and entertainment, and waterside and family attractions wait all around. For intimate integrations we recommend instead the Amelung ponds, Dolina Gornika or the park on Gora Wyzwolenia.
Summer offers the most options, because the Fala bathing site and the kayak and pedalo hire on the Regatta Canal operate then. Spring and early autumn also work beautifully; the programme then leans on the amphitheatre, the active zones and the Elka cable car, and we pick the date to suit the specific idea.
Within one complex you have the Silesian Zoo, the Legendia amusement park, the Silesian Planetarium and a scenic ride on the Elka cable car, plus for active guests the Silesia Rope Park with a separate mini-course for children. In summer the MORiS water playgrounds add to that, so the day works for employees and their little ones alike.
