Porters' base in Mengusovská dolina

Highlight • Rest Area

Here are all the (already half-loaded) baskets and individual things that volunteer porters can carry up to the Rysy hut: tomato sauce jars, potato sacks, Kofola barrels, etc.
And lo and behold: a whole lot of hikers are lugging these things up! And sometimes it's not easy!

Kôprovský Štít

Highlight • Summit

The easy, trail-like summit doesn't pose any technical challenges in summer conditions; you just need to be physically fit. The view is probably one of the most beautiful of the much-maligned sections.
