Lomnické sedlo

Lomnické sedlo, Mountain saddle in High Tatras, Slovakia

Łomnicka Przełęcz is a broad grassy saddle at 2,190 m in the High Tatras, between the summit dome of Lomnický štít and the Lomnický hrebeň ridge. The slope falling east toward Dolina Łomnicka is called Łomnickie Pole, while to the west the Łomnicki Żleb drops into Dolina Małej Zimnej Wody. The ridge south of the saddle, Łomnicka Grań, carries the Wielka Łomnicka Baszta and several lower towers.

The saddle became accessible through a chairlift system built in the mid-20th century from Skalnaté pleso. This infrastructure enabled winter sports development in the High Tatras region.

In 1968 a small wooden hut was built on the western slopes of Veľká Lomnická veža, just above the saddle, for the filming of the Slovak film Medená veža. Afterwards the hut was handed over to TANAP, the Tatra National Park administration. The saddle's Polish name Łomnickie Ramię, "Lomnica shoulder", reflects its broad, arm-like form.

A chairlift from Skalnaté pleso provides access to the saddle. The cable car system starting from Tatranská Lomnica in the valley serves as the main connection.

On 24 July 1975, around 5 a.m., a large rock pillar in the Łomnicka Grań south of the saddle tipped over and fell into Łomnicki Żleb, triggering a stone avalanche; a second, smaller one followed around 10 a.m. Three Polish climbers, Ewa Harasimowicz, Władysław Cywiński and Włodzimierz Stoiński, witnessed it.
