Hromové

Hromové is a mountain summit in the Little Fatra range that reaches 1636 meters and sits among dense forests with rocky sections dotting its slopes. The terrain changes as you climb, moving from tree cover to more exposed areas near the top.

Local communities used passages through these mountains since medieval times to travel between settlements in the Žilina area. Over time these practical routes became established trails that guide visitors today.

The peak draws visitors who come to walk the paths that have shaped daily life in these mountains for centuries. Being here connects you to how local people have always moved through this landscape and used these slopes for their livelihoods.

Several marked trails reach the summit starting from the town of Terchová, with different options for varying experience levels. The higher you go, the cooler and more unpredictable the weather becomes, so proper gear is essential.

The summit sits where several major hiking routes meet, making it a natural junction point for combining different paths through the Little Fatra in a single visit. This central location turns it into a useful landmark and meeting spot for those planning longer hikes in the area.
