Východná Vysoká, Mountain summit in High Tatras, Slovakia

The Východná Vysoká peak reaches an elevation of 2429 meters and features a distinct pyramid shape that marks the junction of ridges between Velická and Studená valleys.

Mountaineers Janusz Chmielowski and Jędrzej Marusarz Jarząbek completed the first documented climb of Východná Vysoká in 1888, marking the beginning of its recorded mountaineering history.

The mountain name changed from Malá Vysoká to Východná Vysoká in the early 20th century, reflecting the Slovak language designation for Eastern High Peak.

The yellow-marked trail from Polski Grzebień pass provides the main access route to the summit, requiring approximately one hour of climbing through marked paths.

From the summit, visitors can identify twelve different mountain lakes scattered across the surrounding valleys, creating an extraordinary mapping perspective of the region.
