The erratic boulder "Gypsy Carriage" is a red, coarse-grained granite - rapakiwi, left here by a glacier during the Pleistocene. The name of the boulder is related to the legend of the envoys from Lithuania who were going to Kraków for the King. Unfortunately, at night their car got stuck on a soggy road - MPs tried unsuccessfully to push the car through. A Gypsy from a nearby camp came to their aid and invited them to the camp. There, the envoys were served with food and could warm themselves by the fire, where they spent the night drinking booze. They boasted about the riches they were carrying for the King. Unfortunately, after receiving help and hospitality from the Gypsies, they tried to sneak out of the camp in the morning - without saying goodbye or thanks. Unfortunately, they were caught by an old Gypsy woman who, outraged by the behavior of the guests, started to spit under their feet, saying that whoever accompanies the thief leaves the bad person. She told them that these words would strike their stone hearts with cold - because whoever is insensitive to good must remain cold forever. The deputies tried to flee, but it turned out that he and the carriage turned into a cold boulder. Apparently, under the boulder, the Gypsies buried the cursed treasures of the deputies.
