Góry Stołowe (the Table Mountains) - a land born of the sea, millions of years ago... is one of the most beautiful and attractive mountain ranges in Poland, a unique place due to its terrain, beautiful rock formations, unique “rock cities”, labyrinths and peculiar forms called rock fungi. Outstanding natural and landscape values are reasons that the National Park of the Table Mountains has been established here in 1993.
Labirynt Błędnych Skał - The Maze of Errant Rocks is located on the north-western edge of Skalniak. It covers a complex of peculiar rock formations with a height of 6 - 11 m, created as a result of weathering sandstone. Errant Rocks is a maze of crevices and alleys, sometimes extremely narrow, separating rock blocks of several meters in height. Many rocks have their own names, for example: “ The Rock Saddle”, “The Hen’s Leg”, “The Tunnel” and “The Grand Hall”. The only observation deck on the route is “The Rock Skuls”. The Szczeliniec Wielki and Mały, city of Machov, and in good visibility, The Karkonosze mountains can be seen from here. Difficult weather conditions, which usually prevail here, cause that the majority of spruces have broken crowns, and other tree species, such as pine and birch, take fanciful, bent shapes. This is a unique place - visit, enjoy the mountains, collect caches; but do not destroy, do not litter - let's preserve this beauty for the next generations.

Dead wood is an important part of forest ecosystems in our Park. It is invaluable as a home to many beneficial insects, invertebrates, amphibians, reptiles and mammals. Dead wood can have different forms: • dead branches on living trees, • dying trees, • dead trees of various sizes, lying on the ground or still standing, • small branches, • windthrows (trees with an uprooted root system), • stumps or snaps (trunks and stumps of broken trees). |
|
There are also trees cut by man because they posed a threat to tourists along the trails. A tree felled along the trail, that created a threat of falling over the path, now is a home to many forest inhabitants. The degree of wood decay can also be very diverse. From wood still fully fresh (at most populated by "pioneer" species of insects or fungi) to a strongly decaying, taking the form of a mound, overgrown with mycelium and plant roots and covered with moss cushions. It can be said that "dead wood" is not dead, the creatures living in it will be using the wood for years to come, then the young trees will be more likely to grow on the soil fertilized by their predecessor. |
