Absolutely unmissable not only in Ponidzie, but in the whole of Poland: it is the oldest preserved hillfort in the whole country. According to archaeologists, this hillfort belonged to the Vistulan tribe, perhaps even in the 8th century. You can see the ramparts and even the moat here - of course, today covered with grass.
It's worth it! In addition, from the top there are beautiful views of the Ponidzie valleys.

Hiking
In the 8th century – 500 years before most castles were built in Europe – there was a mighty wooden castle with a high moat here. The height of the moat is still impressive today.
The walk is worthwhile because the entire area has recently been developed for tourism. There is a parking lot, a tourist office, a very beautiful thatched shelter, and a newly constructed hiking trail around the moat with two staircases that also provide access to the interior.
