Kołowa Czuba, Mountain summit in Tatra Mountains, Poland.

Kołowa Czuba rises to 2,105 meters above sea level, forming a natural border between the Upper Valley of Five Polish Lakes and two smaller valleys.

During the last glacial period, this mountain peak remained exposed above the ice sheet as a nunatak, according to geographer Stanisław Lencewicz.

The mountain received its name from the horizontal terraces on its slopes, and was previously known as Kołowa Turnia or simply Koło.

Access to the summit is easiest from the northwestern side through Dolinka pod Kołem valley, while the eastern face presents technical climbing challenges.

The first documented ascent of the difficult eastern wall route occurred on July 23, 1931, by mountaineers Marian Gotkiewicz, Adam Niesiołowski, and Antoni Stolfa.
