Hello Susan,

May and June should be a very good time to look for White Storks, as they will normally be nesting and raising their young.

One of the best places relatively close to Krakow is the countryside around Wola Batorska and neighbouring Wola Zabierzowska, in the Niepołomice area, approximately 30 km east of Krakow. Wola Batorska is sometimes known locally as a “stork village”, while Wola Zabierzowska lies along the educational Stork Nests Trail, where several nests can be found.

The area is easiest to explore by car, particularly the rural roads, meadows and villages around the edge of Niepołomice Forest. As occupied nests can change from one season to another, we also recommend checking recent local sightings shortly before your visit.

We hope you have a wonderful visit and some excellent stork sightings!

I am planning to visit Krakow May/June 2027 and have a big interest in White storks. Please can you advise a good place to observe them not to far out of Krakow.
