Originally this large boulder or rock field was over 750 hectare,  but slowly some smaller areas have  formed to wetlands and even small forests. There is still a huge area covered with sharp-shaped rocks. Ther is also a campfire place.

Author’s recommendation

Duckboards lead you to the rock field from the parking place.
