An easily accessible vantage point offering a wonderful panoramic view of Szczecin. The open area in front of the vantage point also offers numerous seating areas and barbecue facilities.

A former chalk and marl mine operated by the nearby "Stern" Portland cement factory, founded in 1862 and owned by the Toepffer family. In 1925, a sudden flood of groundwater through a layer of permeable sand led to the quarry's opening. The quarry quickly filled with water. People were immediately evacuated. The quarry was flooded. Emerald Lake was created, which owes its color and name to the high calcium carbonate content in the water and the reflection of light from the chalk bed. In good weather, railway wagons and even workers' tools can still be seen at the bottom of the lake. A concrete bridge, part of the railway track used to transport chalk output to the nearby cement plant, still stands near the lake today.

Two shelters and a place for a bonfire next to the gas thrower called "Heart of the Forest". Easy access by car means that on nice days there are always a lot of people here.

Sit here quietly and listen, listen, and you will hear the heart of the forest beating.

A spectacular view of Emerald Lake. Right behind the barrier there is a vertical slope. Better be careful.

Erratic boulder "Heart of the Forest" with engraved stylized inscription: "Here time has a different dimension. Slow down, here it beats... HEART OF THE FOREST". The boulder set in 2004 on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the State Forests. Right next to it, there is a resting place with bonfires and sheds, benches and tables.
