Kozie Czuby, Mountain arête in Tatra Mountains, Poland
The Gemsenbastei is a narrow, exposed ridge in the Tatra Mountains with sheer drop-offs on either side. Its sharp rocky profile creates a challenging and dramatic line across the high alpine terrain.
This ridge formed through glacial erosion over thousands of years as ice and water sculpted the rock. The process created the sharp-edged formation visible in the mountains today.
Local mountain communities maintain traditions of respecting these elevated landforms, passing down tales of mountaineering accomplishments through generations.
The site is only suitable for experienced climbers and mountaineers as it features steep and exposed sections. Accompanied visits with skilled guides are strongly recommended for safe passage.
The mountain habitat supports populations of chamois and marmots, which frequently traverse the rocky slopes during warmer months.
