Ściana Olzy, Limestone cliff formation in southeastern Poland.
The Ściana Olzy presents vertical rock faces composed of sedimentary layers, revealing millions of years of geological processes through its exposed strata.
Scientists from the Polish Geological Institute began studying this formation in the early 20th century to understand regional tectonic movements and rock composition.
The formation serves as an educational site where geology students from Polish universities conduct field research and practical exercises throughout the academic year.
Visitors can access the formation through marked hiking trails, with the best observation points located along the eastern side of the cliff face.
Natural hydrogen deposits discovered near the formation indicate potential energy resource developments in the surrounding geological structures.
