Zalizna Voda ('Iron Water') is a park of about 19.5 hectares between Stusa, Ternopilska, Kybalchycha, Myshuhy, Yaroslavenka and Mushaka streets, listed since 1984 as a local monument of landscape art. Lvivians had been walking here since the 1830s; the park itself was laid out in 1894-1905 by city gardener Arnold Röhring, who preserved as much of the natural beech forest as possible. Its name comes from the iron-rich springs that surface in the ravines, where marl outcrops feed numerous springs; the Poltva river rises nearby. Between the wars it was called Narutowicz Park; in the 1930s a bathing complex operated by an artificial lake, later the 'Dynamo' sports grounds. Today the park has some 7.7 km of lit paths, benches, a Memorial Alley with trees planted for fallen soldiers, and the 'Rozsadnyk' community gardening space. Beech, oak and hornbeam dominate, with exotics such as Austrian and Weymouth pine. Entry is free.
Yes, it is an open public park — no gates, no tickets, no fixed hours.
