A place with a beautiful view. There's a shelter, a fire pit with a grill, and space to hang a hammock or pitch a tent.

The cottage is a residential building with a kitchen for tourists, a covered terrace with a view of Babia Góra, the Tatras and other mountains. We offer accommodation in multi-person rooms. A covered grill with benches is located near the cottage, as well as a vending machine with Italian ice cream in the summer. In the cottage itself, you can eat dinner and drink beer.

Supposedly a shelter - but every time I'm here I think that it's one of the few places where you don't feel the atmosphere in the mountains (I didn't sleep, I just passed by a few times) payment only cash!!

From the beautiful peak of Jałowiec (1111m) there is a wonderful panorama (views of Palenica and Kiczora, among others); there is also a board showing which mountain on the horizon is which. Many trails intersect here (so there is a choice of where to go next...), there is also a hut and a place for a bonfire.

A mountain tourist shelter of the Polish Tourist and Sightseeing Society (PTTK) at an altitude of 890 m above sea level, 800 m from the Leskowiec mountain, from which it takes its name. The location is beautiful - from the nearby Leskowiec and Gronie Jana Pawła II there are some of the most beautiful mountain panoramas in the whole of Poland (i.e. eat, sleep and watch). There is a buffet, a kitchen with full board and accommodation for tired tourists. The shelter is open all year round.

the peak of the Jałowiec Range is included in the Żywiec Beskids. The top of Jałowiec is where the borders of three towns meet: Koszarawa in the Silesian Voivodeship and Stryszawa and Zawoja, both in the Sucha County, in the Lesser Poland Voivodeship
