We can get here by walking along the sidewalk and a short forest path, or through the forest: taking the green trail from the center of Karpacz, passing through Wilcza Poręba, Szeroki Most, and Dolina Płomnicy. On-site, there are rocks, a legend, and a picnic area with Emilii Dziubak's "Rok w lesie" (A Year in the Forest).
