Access from Głogów by sandy roads - on dry days it is very difficult to drive because the surface is not paved. From Sokołów, asphalt access.

A great place to relax, off the beaten track, hidden quite deep in the forest, I often go back there. I recommend it ;)

A place worth recommending for relaxation. Large, spacious shelter. It has two dining tables and benches. There is a grate above the fireplace, and next to it there is a large supply of wood and waste bins. A place under the patronage of the Kolbuszowa Forest District.
