Maszynka do Mięsa

Maszynka do Mięsa is a steep snow couloir that cuts down the mountainside with a pronounced angle in the Bukowina Tatrzańska area. Rock formations frame both sides of the narrow passage, creating a defined channel for descent.

Local skiers first discovered the route in the 1950s when winter mountaineering became popular in the Tatra Mountains. Since then it has developed into a sought-after destination for those pursuing challenging descents.

The name references how the narrow channel processes snow, comparing its action to a meat grinder that breaks up and shapes the snow as it moves down.

Reaching this couloir demands advanced skiing experience and proper avalanche safety gear from anyone attempting the descent. Always check current snow and weather conditions before committing to the run.

Rock walls on both sides create specific wind patterns that keep snow conditions stable throughout the winter season. This natural funneling effect produces a more consistent surface than slopes nearby.
