Getting Around Poznan: Walkability, Public Transit & Biking

Poznań is a wonderfully walkable city, particularly around its charming Old Town area. Everything you need as a traveler, from historical sites to a variety of dining options, is within easy reach on foot. The compact design of the city’s center means there’s no need to rely heavily on transportation for daily errands or exploration. However, while the central areas are convenient, some errands might still require transport to areas outside the immediate city center.

Poznań offers a well-connected and efficient public transportation system comprising trams and buses, ensuring travelers can conveniently access most parts of the city. The public transit network connects to key destinations, including the city's main train station, making it straightforward and reliable for both day and night travels. The 'Jakdojade' app enhances the ease of navigating public transport, allowing for effortless route planning and ticket purchases.

Poznań is making strides towards becoming more bike-friendly by expanding its cycling paths, notably around scenic areas like Lake Malta and the Warta River. This development is especially noteworthy in the greener parts of the city, which are lovely for a casual ride. However, the bike infrastructure remains a work in progress, particularly in the central city area where routes can be inconsistent, and some areas might feel challenging for cyclists until more comprehensive improvements are made.
