Nature
Between Jastrzębia Góra and Rozewie, within the Coastal Landscape Park, the shore is cut by Lisi Jar — a ravine reaching 50 metres deep, down which you can walk to the beach through entrance no. 19. Not so long ago the ravine stretched about 10 km inland; abrasion, the destructive work of sea waves, has by now reduced it to just 350 metres.
The slopes of the ravine are covered with historic beeches over 100 years old, and between them grow wild pears, rowans, forest fruits and even orchids. At the entrance to Lisi Jar, Count de Rosset built the shelter Nad Lisim Jarem — the first seaside tourist shelter in Poland.
By the ravine stands an obelisk commemorating the landing of King Sigismund III Vasa, who — as the account goes — came ashore here in 1594 after his unsuccessful expedition for the Swedish crown. The monument with a ball and eagle was destroyed by the German occupiers in 1939 and rebuilt in 1995. On one of the slopes you will also see a shrine of St. Anthony.
The ravine is reached via Rozewska Street in Jastrzębia Góra, and the beach lies down the path through the ravine, entrance no. 19. Remember that the cliff gives way to the waves — of 10 km only 350 m remain, so every visit to Lisi Jar is an experience against time. Nearby are Rozewie with its lighthouse and the promenade of Jastrzębia Góra.
