Skalná Alpa, Mountain summit in Greater Fatra range, Slovakia.
The limestone peak of Skalná Alpa rises to 1463 meters, featuring dense coniferous forests and meadows filled with mountain flowers and herbs.
The formation of Skalná Alpa occurred during the Alpine orogeny period, resulting in its current limestone composition and geological structure.
The mountain area maintains protected status within Greater Fatra National Park, preserving natural forest communities and traditional sheep grazing practices.
Hikers can reach Skalná Alpa through marked trails from Podsuchá-Ružomberok or Ľubochňa-Blatná, with distances of 10 and 8 kilometers respectively.
Rare dwarf trees grow on the rocky slopes near the summit, representing an original forest structure that has remained unchanged through generations.
