Kopa nad Váhou

Kopa nad Váhou is a mountain summit in the High Tatras with an elevation around 2061 meters. The peak features steep slopes, rocky sections, and vantage points looking out over the surrounding mountain range within the protected park area.

The peak became recognized as a geographical reference point during the 20th century when the region was established as a national park. Written records from mountaineering groups have since documented regular ascents to this mountain.

The summit holds meaning for local mountaineers who view peak ascents as part of their connection to the High Tatras landscape. For many visitors from Slovakia and neighboring areas, climbing this mountain represents a personal engagement with the region's natural heritage.

Visitors need sturdy hiking boots with good grip and solid mountain gear for the climb. It is wise to check weather forecasts and start early in the day, since conditions can change quickly at high altitude.

The summit offers distant views of multiple valleys and neighboring peaks, with each season creating entirely different landscape perspectives. In winter the sight appears clearer, while in summer green slopes change the view completely.
