Čierny kameň

Čierny kameň rises to 1,479 meters above sea level, featuring sharp rocky outcrops that contrast with the surrounding grassy slopes of Greater Fatra National Park.

The mountain area has maintained 67 hectares of untouched vegetation between Čierny kameň and Hrubý grúň, receiving official protection status in 1964.

Local residents have integrated the mountain into regional folklore, with numerous stories connecting the dark stone formations to Slovak mountain traditions.

Visitors can reach the summit through multiple routes, with the most frequent path starting from Vyšné Revúce and requiring a three-hour hike.

The southern slopes of Čierny kameň present geological formations that resemble the limestone structures found in northern Italian mountain ranges.
