Crossroads of forest paths at the foot of Svaté Hostýn. The red, blue and yellow sign leading from Bystřice pod Hostýnem - Lázní divides here. The red and blue continue together for another 500m to the intersection Pod Vodní kaplí, where the red turns to Hostýn, while the blue continues to the intersection Pod valy and Skalný. Here, the yellow turns to the hotel in the settlement of Říka.

When at the end of the 19th century the Stations of the Cross located on the walls of the Basilica of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in St. Hostýn was no longer enough for the number of praying pilgrims, there was talk that an outdoor Stations of the Cross should also be built. One that would crown the slopes of St. Hostýn and where a procession of pilgrims much larger than before could pray. Work on the new Stations of the Cross began in 1900. However, the simple classicist chapels with paintings by the Bystřice painter Mr. Žůrek did not garner the kind of response that the local parish had dreamed of.
