Place of Power

Miejsce Mocy

A clearing in the forest ringed by stones and ancient trees, said to gather energy, and a mysterious spot that has become a popular photo stop.

The “Place of Power” lies in the forest about 5 km southwest of Białowieża village. A ring of stones surrounds the clearing, framed by tall oaks and hornbeams. Local legend holds that this was once a sacred site of the ancient Slavs, where visitors can “draw energy.” There is no scientific basis for this, but the spot is a popular place to rest in the woods and is often visited by bike together with the Bison Show Reserve and the Emperor Oak Trail. Free entry.
