At the place of the large cluster of yews, the Slovaks formed the Kamieńskie Cisy nature reserve with an area of ​​20.3 ha. From 1997 he joined the Pienap covering the entire area of ​​small Pieniny on the Slovak side along the border. The top itself is rocky from the north side and there is a characteristic gap on the space, besides the vertex parts on the south side are covered with forest. From the summit, good views of the Tatra Mountains and the Beskid Sądecki. On the Polish north side below the summit is a large and pretty Glade Zaskalskie.

The water department between these rivers runs through the peak and north-east ridge of Smerekowa.
