Geomorphology

The range is formed of sandstone and, as the only one in Poland, presents plated structure with sheer mountain ledges.^[6] Among the tourist attractions there are two massifs: Szczeliniec Wielki with a stone labyrinth on the top, and Skalniak with the Błędne Skały (Errant Rocks) stone labyrinth. There are several notable rock formations, among them Kwoka ("Hen"), Wielbłąd ("Camel"), Małpa ("Monkey"), Głowa Konia ("Horse Head"), and Fotel Pradziada ("Great Grandfather's Armchair").
