Bałczyna (often called Bełczyna) is the highest elevation of the Ostrzeszowskie Hills, rising to 278 m above sea level. It is a popular viewing point, from which, in good weather, you can even see the chimneys of the Bełchatów Power Plant. At the top, there is a monument to soldiers from 1939 and a stone table with the cardinal directions, which makes this place an attractive destination for trips. Over the years, Bełczyna has served as a place for rest, skiing, motocross and paragliding. There are three trails leading to the hill, including the Transwielkopolska Bicycle Route - it is worth having an MTB, because the terrain can be varied.
