Skalka, Mountain summit in Kremnica Mountains, Slovakia
The 1231.6-meter Skalka mountain rises within the Carpathian range, spanning across Banská Bystrica and Žiar nad Hronom administrative districts.
The region gained prominence during the 1950s when geologists discovered substantial uranium deposits within the mountain's mylonitized Lower Triassic quartzites.
Local communities maintain strong connections to outdoor activities through established hiking networks that connect multiple settlements surrounding the mountain.
Several marked trails lead to the summit from different access points, with the main trailhead starting at Srdiečko featuring gondola service.
The mountain contains distinct mineral formations including chalcopyrite, metatorbernite, sabugalite, and torbernite, creating a notable geological study site.
