August 5, 2025, Spring in Niekłań Wielki

Apparently this spring water will give you ability to over perform in bed and last 4 times longer. Legend says it will make you more fertile too. That's what old tales say here

An inanimate nature reserve in the Konecko-Łopuszniański Protected Landscape Area in the Stąporków commune, in the Konecki district, in the northern part of the Świętokrzyskie province, near the town of Niekłań Wielki. The rocks stretch for about 1 kilometre, their height reaches 8 metres. The Skałki Piekło nature reserve under Niekłaniem is the starting point of the black tourist trail of the black tourist trail leading to the town of Wólka Plebańska. The blue tourist trail from Skarżysko-Kamienna (Pogorzałe) to Kuźniaki passes through the reserve. It is also a point on the Piekielny Szlak.

The "Skałki Piekło pod Niekłaniem" nature reserve was established on April 1, 1959, in order to preserve, for scientific and didactic reasons, the peculiar forms of sandstone rocks formed by wind erosion and the northern parrot fern (Asplenium Septentrionale) living in rock crevices, on the initiative of Eng. Teodor Zielinski. It is the oldest nature reserve operating in the Stąporków Forest District.

The reserve was established in 1959 to preserve peculiar rock forms. The rocks in question were carved thanks to erosive processes in the Triassic and Lower Jurassic sandstones. Thanks to this, they stand out beautifully with yellow and orange, but also with a dark color against the green of the forest. At a length of several hundred meters, the rocks form two separate clusters. Following the blue trail from the parking lot, first we reach lower and darker rock formations, then we reach more colorful and magnificent, up to 8 m high inselbergs. These are rocks with extremely unusual shapes, such as mushrooms, chimneys, pulpits (pulpit), or… what your imagination will tell you.
