Kežmarský štít, Mountain summit in High Tatras, Slovakia.
Kesmarker Spitze is a summit in the High Tatras that rises to 2,556 meters and features steep rock faces with distinct limestone formations. The mountain's walls are clearly visible from surrounding valleys and neighboring peaks, shaping the region's mountain landscape.
The first documented ascent occurred in 1840, marking an early milestone in the exploration of the High Tatras. This early climb reflected the growing mountaineering activity in the region during the 19th century.
The mountain serves as a training ground for Slovak mountaineers, with numerous established climbing routes that test technical skills throughout the year.
Climbers can reach the summit via marked trails starting from Hrebienok or Téryho mountain hut, requiring proper equipment and stable weather. The routes demand technical skill and it is wise to check trail conditions before your visit.
The mountain offers five different climbing routes ranging in difficulty for mountaineers of different skill levels. August and April are considered the best months for attempts due to optimal weather and climbing conditions.
