Štiavnica, Mountain summit in Great Fatra, Slovakia.

The Štiavnica summit rises 1381 meters above sea level, featuring limestone formations and dense forest coverage throughout its slopes.

This peak has served as a geographical reference point for local communities since medieval times, when miners used it to navigate through the region.

Local mountaineering groups organize annual summer solstice gatherings at the summit, continuing a tradition that started in the early 20th century.

The summit can be accessed via marked hiking trails from multiple starting points, with the eastern route offering the most gradual ascent.

The peak contains several natural caves formed through water erosion, providing shelter to numerous bat colonies during winter months.
