Rock forms closing the outlet of the Bolechowicka Valley resulting from karst processes in the Olkusz Upland. The Bolechowicka Gate is formed by two limestone rocks about 30 m high, on the eastern side it is the Abazy Pillar, on the west side the Penitents' Pillar forming a jagged ridge. Clients gave them the names before World War II. They are steeply undercut and available for rock climbing, climbers can often be seen here. You can only climb the marked climbing routes using only the rings already installed. These are often difficult routes. The hill on the eastern side of the Penitents' Pillar can be approached without too much difficulty. There is a wide view of the Hump Tenczyński, Trench Krzeszowicki and Krakow. The Black Tourist Walking Trail from Bolechowice to the mouth of the Bolechowice Gorge leads through the Bolechowice Gate.
