This well-preserved early medieval hillfort dates back to the late phase of tribal period (9th century AD). It is located on the SE-oriented promontory. The main hillfort is oval in shape, it has three lines of ramparts and ditches. To its west there are remains of a settlement enclosed with further earthworks.
To reach the hillfort you have to turn right next to a large cross in the northern part of Chełmiec village. Soon you will enter a forest, there take first unpaved road to the right. On a major curve of that road you must enter the forest to your right, first line of earthworks (that of the settlement) is very close to the footpath.
