Minčol, Mountain peak in Dolný Kubín District, Slovakia
Minčol is a mountain summit located in the Oravská Magura range at 1393.9 meters elevation. The peak stands out as a prominent landmark within this mountain chain in northern Slovakia, offering views from its highest point.
The mountain served as a natural boundary marker between regional territories from medieval times onward. This location influenced how trade and settlement patterns developed across the surrounding area.
Local communities gather annually at the summit during summer solstice celebrations to maintain connections with regional mountain traditions.
Multiple marked trails lead to the summit from different starting points, with the eastern route offering the most gradual climb. Bring weather-appropriate clothing since conditions at the top can change rapidly.
On clear days the summit offers views of both the Western Tatras and Malá Fatra mountain ranges. These rare moments of visibility across both major ranges make the climb worthwhile for visitors seeking wide vistas.
