Access
Accessible from Nowosielce and Pielnia villages - by foot/bike/car/etc. Public transport to these villages limited to buses from Sanok or Krosno. Best to explore by foot, eventually by bike or 4x4 vehicle (not advised and may be problematic). Best to leave larger vehicles somewhere in a village and enjoy the trail by-foot. Field roads are rather dry and don't require rain boots.

NoExtra info
There aren't really any species here that'd require audio stimulation to show up. Please, avoid doing so. Different birds of prey can be seen during different parts of the day (usually smaller species in the morning and afternoon, larger show up when air is warm enough to soar).
Hazards: ticks, deep snow (winter). Keep in mind presence of other people (hunters, off-road enthusiasts, deltatrike/plane enthusiasts, wanderers), especially during weekends it can get quite busy.
