Rumanov štít

Rumanowy Szczyt is a mountain in the High Tatras featuring three distinct peaks separated by small notches. The summit area reaches 2428 meters and overlooks both Kacza Valley and Rumanowa Valley below.

The first successful ascent took place in 1902 when climbers including Janusz Chmielowski reached the summit. This early expedition was part of the active exploration of the Tatras during that era.

The name comes from Jan Ruman Driečny, a Tatra guide who made many first ascents in the region during the 1800s. Climbers today still mention his legacy when discussing the mountain's story.

Access comes through multiple routes with varying difficulty levels, from easier paths to more technical climbing sections. Visitors should plan for good weather and daylight hours, as the terrain involves steep passages that require careful footing.

The northern face drops over 600 meters down to Kacza Valley and offers climbing routes ranging from difficulty IV to V. This steep elevation change makes the peak a destination for climbers seeking technical challenges.
