Slovakia (Slovak Republic) Rysy Summit, High Tatras

Rysy, Polands highest mountain, standing tall at 2.503m. It is a truly stunning feeling to overlook the High Tatras from here. Hiking is accessible from both sites, Poland and Slovakia since this summit is literally on the border of both countries. This is the final ridge-line before accessing the summit.

Make sure to set your tripod, get the final ridge line as a leading line in the frame and place yourself on top. This will create an adventure character.

This hike will take you around 1.350m in height on a 20km trail. Parking is located at ŠTRBSKÉ PLESO - it will cost you some money but there is plenty of parking. Be careful that Rysy is most likely only accessible in summer (June to September). There is a mountain hut closely underneath the summit. Make sure to be safe and experienced in the mountains since this is no easy last part to the summit.
