The park comprises the central part of the Gorce Range in the Western Beskid, with the exception of its highest peak, Turbacz (1,310 meters above sea level). This is a typical mountain forest park with rising slopes of tree stands. The Carpathian beech and fir cover the lower slopes, while the upper parts of the mountains are dominated by spruce forest. Both Alpine and the natural endemic plants cover the numerous mountain glades.
The park’s fauna include typical forest animals such as red deer, roe deer, wild boar, lynx, wildcat, and wolf. Of special note is the population of wood grouse and the spotted salamander, which is the park’s emblem.
