During the off-season, the chairlift operates as a scenic transport for hikers accessing the Cieńków Loop trail. The complex includes an on-site ski school and equipment rental services.

Do not attempt to hike the ski slopes during active snow grooming hours as cables and machinery pose a hazard.
The ski lifts operate primarily from December to March depending on snow conditions; the chairlift remains open for tourist traffic during late spring, summer, and early autumn.
Skiers must adhere to the FIS safety rules on the slopes; hikers should stay on marked paths to avoid encroaching on private grazing land.
