Štrbský štít, Mountain summit in High Tatras, Slovakia
The pyramidal peak of Szczyrbski Szczyt rises to 2,385 meters, featuring steep rock walls and deep passes that separate it from surrounding mountains.
The first winter ascent of Szczyrbski Szczyt took place on January 5, 1906, when mountaineers E. Baur and Alfred Martin reached the summit through harsh conditions.
Helena Dłuska and Irena Pawlewska-Szydłowska made history in August 1908 as the first women to reach the summit, advancing female mountaineering in the region.
The eastern ridge route from Młynická Przełęcz provides the most straightforward access to the summit, with an ascent time of approximately thirty minutes for experienced climbers.
In June 1979, a rescue helicopter crashed near the mountain while responding to an injured hiker, resulting in five rescuers' deaths, marking Slovakia's worst mountain rescue incident.
