Skorušina

Skorušina rises to 1314 meters above sea level, forming part of the Skorušinské Hills with deep valleys carving through its ridge system.

The development of hiking trails on Skorušina mountain occurred alongside the establishment of tourist infrastructure in the Western Tatras region during the 20th century.

Local communities maintain traditional Slovak mountain shelters near Skorušina, where travelers gather to share stories and regional foods after their hikes.

Hikers can reach the summit through marked trails starting from three different points: Vitanová, Trstená, or Brezovica, with each route taking about two hours.

The 13-meter steel observation tower at the peak provides views of Roháč ridge, Veľký Choč Hill, Orava Dam, and the extensive Orava basin.
