Zmarzłe Czuby

Gefrorene Zacken is a mountain arête in Brzegi consisting of two distinct summits that rise above the surrounding landscape. The ridge is composed of granite and gneiss, creating a rocky formation that extends across the area.

This ridge formed during the last ice age through glacial erosion that shaped the Carpathian Mountains. The glacier left its mark on the granite and gneiss, creating the sharp features visible today.

Local mountaineering traditions incorporate specific climbing techniques developed for navigating the granite gneiss surfaces of Zmarzłe Czuby throughout different seasons.

The hiking trails to this ridge are marked and pass through different elevation zones, with conditions varying by season. It is wise to allow plenty of time and wear sturdy footwear suitable for rocky terrain.

This ridge is often observed locally for its frozen surfaces during winter months, which inspired its name. This ice coating dramatically changes how the formation appears and how it can be traversed across different seasons.
