This quiet camping ground is around 4km west of the Old Town in leafy Zwierzyniec. Also on offer are good-value double and triple rooms. To get here from the train station, take tram 1, 2 or 6 to the end of the line at Salwator and change for any westbound bus, asking the driver to stop at the campground.
