Čierna hora, Mountain summit in Kežmarok District, Slovakia

Čierna hora rises to an elevation of 1,289 meters above sea level, forming the highest peak of the Levoča Mountains in northeastern Slovakia.

The mountain area served as a military training ground called Javorina until its decommission, leaving numerous partially eroded military roads across the terrain.

The name translates to Black Mountain, reflecting the dark rock formations and dense forest cover that characterize the mountainous landscape.

Multiple hiking paths lead to the summit from the villages of Ihľany, Kolačkov, and Nižné Ružbachy, with ascents taking between 4 to 5 hours.

The northern, southern, and eastern slopes of the mountain feed several streams, including Šípková, Jakubianka, and Kolačkovský Potok, supporting local water systems.
