The summit is accessible via the marked T1 hiking trail that runs through the Pieniny range. Visitors will find lodging and supplies available in the nearby villages surrounding the area.
From the summit, visitors can see over 60 other peaks within the national park on clear days. This wide panorama makes it a favorite viewpoint for those wanting to take in the entire Pieniny massif.
