At the intersection of the CPO cycle paths – a Polish-German route following the former narrow-gauge railway line – and the Karwowo–Warnik path stands an eagle (Bielik) with a compass. It is a symbol of discovering new paths and orientation in the field, both for cyclists and hikers. The eagle encourages active exploration of the municipality, contact with nature, and reminds us of the historical and international character of this place.

Figurine made as part of the project: "Kołbaskowo symbols – signage for better visualization of cultural heritage". One of them proudly stands at the intersection of the Warnik - Przecław cycle path running through the picturesque areas of Wał Stobniański, with the cycle path along the route of the former narrow-gauge railway CPO Casekow-Penkun-Oder (Casekow - Szczecin Pomorzany).
