Dabas liegums veidots ainaviskā Kāla ezera trīs salu (Tolkas, Lielā Vestienas un Vistu sala) un to mežu biotopu aizsardzībai. Diemžēl, salu apmeklētāji (makšķernieki?) aiz sevis ir atstājuši ne tikai nelabiekārtotas apmetņu un ugunskuru vietas, bet arī atkritumus. Tā kā salu vērtību spēs novērtēt tikai zinošs speciālists, ieteicams dabas liegumu vērot no skaistajiem un pauguriem klātajiem Kāla ezera ziemeļu un austrumu krastiem. Teritorija atrodas Vestienas aizsargājamo ainavu apvidū.
