Divá veža, Mountain summit in High Tatras, Slovakia.

The mountain peak reaches an elevation of 2379 meters and features two distinct summits rising above Velká Studená dolina and Svišťová dolina valleys.

The first documented ascent of the mountain occurred on July 14, 1898, when Antonina Englisch, Karol Englisch, and Johann Hunsdorfer reached the summit.

The name reflects its physical characteristics, with Polish mountaineer Janusz Chmielowski introducing the name Dzika Turnia in 1906 for its rough appearance.

The summit lacks marked hiking trails and requires technical climbing skills, with access primarily through the main ridge between Mała Wysoka and Świstowy Szczyt.

Below the mountain lies Zmarzły Staw pod Polskim Grzebieniem, a mountain lake providing views of surrounding peaks and the Rohatka formation.
