The heap is a heap of material that was extracted from the "Murcki" Hard Coal Mine operating under various names already in 1769 (the inheritor is the modern "Staszic-Wujek" Hard Coal Mine). The hill, 330 m above sea level, is surrounded by the Murckowskie Forests.
In good weather, the Beskids and Tatra Mountains are visible from the peak. From the north, the view is limited by Wanda Hill
In 2010, a wooden cross was placed on top of the heap (Wikipedia)

Honestly, I'm disappointed with this place. Poor views. A lot of mud on the way.

It's very muddy after the rain, but it's still worth going there
