Stoh, Limestone mountain in Little Fatra range, Slovakia.
Stoh is a limestone mountain in the Little Fatra range that rises to 1,607 meters. Above the tree line at about 1,300 meters, grassy meadows and blueberry bushes create the distinctive appearance of the upper slopes.
Mountain paths through the Little Fatra have connected local communities for centuries as traditional routes. They served as important passages between settlements in the Zilina and Dolný Kubín regions.
Local mountain clubs maintain marked trails that guide hikers and nature enthusiasts to the peak. This tradition of organized mountain activities is deeply rooted in the region's way of life.
The main hiking route from Stefanova village takes about three hours to reach the summit. Visitors should wear sturdy footwear and be prepared for changing weather conditions at higher elevations.
From the peak on clear days, visitors can see five different mountain ranges spreading across the horizon. This rare panoramic view makes the summit a special vantage point in the region.
