Skalisko, Mountain summit in Gelnica District, Slovakia
The limestone peak of Skalisko rises to 1293 meters, featuring a 10-meter rock formation at its highest point overlooking the Volovské vrchy mountains.
During World War II, Skalisko marked the tallest elevation under Hungarian administration, previously known by local names Baracká and Baračka.
The mountain stands between mining communities of Gelnica and Rožňava, where centuries of gold and silver extraction shaped regional development.
Multiple marked hiking trails lead to the summit from nearby towns, with the green-marked path starting in Henclová offering the most direct access.
From the summit platform, visitors observe a complete 360-degree view encompassing the High Tatras, Low Tatras, and Slovak Karst landscapes.
