The lakes were created as a result of tearing off the western slope of Chryszczata on April 13, 1907. They are one of the major natural curiosities of the Bieszczady. It is worth mentioning that these are the largest landslide lakes in the Beskids in Poland. To date, two of them have survived - the third has been drained to make it easier to fish. The smaller of the lakes, called the Lower (area 0.45 ha) is located at an altitude of 683 m a.s.l. Larger - Upper (area 1.44 ha), 18 meters higher. In the lake water, you can see the roots and stumps of tree trunks damaged by a landslide and flooded by the stream. Above the reservoirs you can see clear traces of the powerful landslide gutter. In 1957 this area was recognized as a protected area, creating here the "Zwiezło" nature reserve. Local people considered this place enchanted, and related the causes of the landslide to the actions of the devil, who threw a fireball, wreaking havoc here.

Local people considered this place enchanted, and related the causes of the landslide to the actions of the devil, who threw a fireball, wreaking havoc here. Another legend says that the reason lies in the fall of the meteorite. At the time of the cataclysm, the terrified people from the nearby village of Duszatyn, suspecting the end of the world, packed their property and fled to the nearby villages of Smolnika and Prełuk, where the bells in the church were struck.
