Zlatý stôl

Zlatý stôl, Mountain summit in the Volovské vrchy, Košice Region, Slovakia

Zlatý stôl is the highest summit of the Volovské vrchy mountains, reaching 1,322.4 m, in the Slovak Ore Mountains. It rises on a northern spur above the Stará Voda valley, about 14 km northeast of Rožňava. The summit holds a 6.4 m reinforced-concrete obelisk built in 1931–1935 for the first-order triangulation network; a 15.2 m wooden tower once stood above it.

The name comes from a local legend: King Matthias Corvinus of Hungary stopped to eat on the summit during a tour of his lands, and the meal was served on a golden table, hence Zlatý stôl (Golden Table) and the local variant Kráľov stôl (King's Table). From the 13th century the slopes were mined for gold, silver, copper and lead ores, and later iron. During the Slovak National Uprising there was heavy fighting in the massif between insurgents and German troops.

The name comes from a local legend: King Matthias Corvinus of Hungary is said to have stopped on the summit for a meal during a tour of his lands, and the food was served on a golden table, hence Zlatý stôl, also called Kráľov stôl (King's Table).

The summit is reached by marked blue trail: from Švedlár via Stará Voda and Kobyliar (1,271 m) in about 3 h 30 min, or from Rožňava through Rožňavská dolina and over the Krivé saddle (1,109 m) in about 5 h 15 min. The Krivé saddle is a junction with the Cesta hrdinov SNP route.

The geological composition contains rare mineral formations dating to the Paleozoic era. These features attract researchers studying the ancient rock layers of the mountain.
