The Leszcz stronghold is a remnant (in the form of landform) of an old stronghold built by the Slavs between the mid-8th and 9th centuries.
An additional attraction is the impressively steep cliffs of the hillfort and the depth of the surrounding gorge (which the photos do not convey - you have to see it with your own eyes), making access difficult from the north, west and south. From the eastern side, access was protected by a moat.
Access to the stronghold is not easy, as it is only possible from the eastern side and currently there are no roads or paths leading to it.
You need to reach the remains of the former farm [komoot.com/pl-pl/highlight/6736966] to which the road leads, and then take the asphalt road towards the west to reach a private property near the forest, go around it on the right right next to the fence towards the edge of the forest, then turn left along the edge of the forest for about 250 m and then turn right into the ravine. This is where the monument is located.
Please note that on the western, northern and southern sides, the stronghold is separated by a high fence.
