A hillfort (grodzisko) called Bugaj is located on the summit of the Żar mountain (530m altitude), some 1.5km SW of Kalwaria Zebrzydowska. It was discovered in 1957 and originally attributed to the Tribal period (8th-10th century AD). A circular earthwork with a ditch and outer bank is in good condition. The site was occupied in the medieval period, but recent excavations unearthed also Bronze Age pottery.
A tourist trail which leads to the nearby ruins of Barwałd castle passes through interior of the hillfort.
