Poľský hrebeň, Mountain pass in High Tatras, Slovakia.

Polski Grzebień sits at an elevation of 2200 meters between Mała Wysoka and Wielicki peaks, offering views of Wielicka and Świstowa valleys.

The pass marked the border between Poland and the Habsburg Empire until 1770, when the Nowy Targ district came under Austrian control.

Notable Polish poets including Adam Asnyk, Leopold Staff, and Kazimierz Przerwa-Tetmajer crossed this mountain pass during their literary journeys.

Access to Polski Grzebień requires a 5-hour hike from Łysa Polana using blue and green trails, with chains securing the final ascent.

The Martin Route, an unmarked path from the pass, leads experienced mountaineers with certified guides to Gerlach, the highest peak of the Carpathians.
