Veľký Mengusovský štít, Mountain summit in High Tatras, Slovakia

Standing at 2,438 meters, Veľký Mengusovský štít features two distinct peaks separated by the Great Mengusovská Gap on the Slovak-Polish border.

The first documented ascent of Veľký Mengusovský štít occurred in June 1877, led by mountaineers Ludwik Chałubiński, Wojciech Roj, and Maciej Sieczka.

The summit represents a significant mountaineering destination within the Tatra National Park, where climbing traditions connect Slovak and Polish alpine communities.

Access to the summit requires a professional mountain guide and takes approximately six to eight hours from Popradské Pleso through the Mengusová Valley.

The northern face presents one of the highest walls in the Tatra Mountains, rising 820 meters above the Morskie Oko basin.
