On the left side of the fence of the lower lift station (looking towards the top of Palenica) there is a gate for cyclists, and behind it a fenced sector where bicycles and strollers are parked.

Hiking

The climb from Szczawnica is short but quite steep, so if you don't like to get tired, the cable car is your only chance to get to Palenica.
