Hyrcza Pass is located at the height of 697 m. a.s.l. between the peaks of Durna (979 m a. s. l.) and Korbani (894 m a. s. l.). Through the pass runs an old road which in the past connected the villages of Łopienka and Tyskowa. Nearby Hyrcza Pass, the Baligród Forestry Management put a shed on flattening, within mixed forest. It is wooden and built up on the sides, so in case of rain one can take shelter in it, relax and even stay overnight. Inside are tables and benches. On the side wall is an information board describing the history of a nearby chapel, which was constructed after World War I and at which the pilgrims who are going to Łopienki for church fair stop. One need to go about 5 minutes with unmarked road heading north to get to the chapel. In the 1990s, the chapel, the same as the Orthodox church in Łopience, was renovated. The shed is located on the nature path connecting Korbania with Łopienka.
