Summary/Abstract: Family allotment gardens are a place for rest and recreation for residents of mostly large and medium-sized cities. The COVID-19 pandemic, which started in China in November 2019, has initiated serious crises affecting various types of human activities (including tourism) and has also limited travel opportunities. For many people, especially the poorer and economically inactive (including pensioners), their only active recreation was carried out on allotments. The article is an attempt to answer the question: did the two years of the COVID-19 pandemic affect the behavior and leisure of users of allotment gardens and to what extent? The answer to such a question was made using a direct inventory and a questionnaire survey of users of the Prince Bolek the First allotments in Jawor. The analysis showed that the COVID-19 pandemic affected the behavior and leisure of allotment garden users; however, the impact here was not as large as was expected.
