Malý Rozsutec is a mountain peak in the Little Fatra range that rises to 1343 meters and features steep limestone cliffs with exposed rock formations. The summit area consists of jagged limestone structure with narrow passages and rock faces.
The mountain was shaped over millions of years through geological processes that formed its current limestone structure. The peak belongs to the Krywań section of the Little Fatra range.

Marked trails lead from Štefanová village to the summit, requiring about two and a half hours of climbing. The route passes through protected natural areas with steep sections.
The ascent passes through Diery gorge, where steel chains and ladders help climbers navigate narrow limestone passages. This equipment allows access to otherwise difficult sections.
