The length of the route is about 4 kilometers, which makes it ideal for those who want to combine a walk with light trekking. Known for its numerous bends and unique views of the surrounding countryside, the Hundred Turns Road provides a unique experience right at the very beginning of the hike. The path leads through dense beech forests, which gives solace on hot days, and gradually leads down to the valley, where the Pośny Waterfall appears among the green trees. The trail is well marked and maintained, but please be aware of proper footwear as some sections can be slippery, especially after rain.

The entire route is flat and well prepared, allowing easy access to the waterfall without the need for climbing. Its length is about 3 kilometers and takes about an hour of walking.

Traveling on the Pastorka-Waterfall route is a real adventure as it involves several more difficult sections of climbing.
