Scenic views in Dąbrowa Górnicza come from the Pogoria II and Kuźnica Warężyńska reservoirs and the long Metallurgists' Trail over Gołonóg Hill.
Two lakes and one trail show another side of the town than steelworks and mines: water, reeds and a view from a hill. It suits a walk with a camera.
Pogoria II came into being in 1976-1978 in a flooded sand pit. Today an ecological site of 40 ha protects it, and gulls of the black-headed kind breed along its banks. It is a place for calm walks and angling.
Kuźnica Warężyńska Reservoir, popularly Pogoria IV, is the largest of the three bodies of water at 560 ha; water filled the old sand-quarry hollow in 2005. The main beach adjoins Wojkowice Kościelne, and part of the lake belongs to the Siewierz municipality.
The Metallurgists' Trail is a marked footpath of 18.2 km; it joins Dąbrowa Górnicza with southern Sosnowiec via Gołonóg Hill. Hikers may cover it entirely or just the first stretch.
Kuźnica Warężyńska, at 560 ha, is many times larger than Pogoria II.
It is 18.2 km long and leads from Dąbrowa Górnicza to southern Sosnowiec over Gołonóg Hill.
The town has its own page, Dąbrowa Górnicza, and more lookouts are gathered under Scenic views.
