Connected by cable car to Tatranská Lomnica, its summit is 2,634 metres (8,642 ft) above sea level, making it the second highest peak in the High Tatras after Gerlachovský štít (2654 m).

The route called Medené Lávky starts at chata pri Zelenom plese, we head along an unmarked sidewalk over a kneeling path to the Čierny štít massif.

After it we will climb the threshold of the Veľká zmrzlá dolina, cross the stream and head left to the Medená kotlina.

The route through Cmiter starts at Skalnaté pleso, leading through Skalnatá dolina underneath to the massifs of Vidlové veže and Kežmarský štít.

The harder sections require rope, since the path is not secured by any additional gear such as chains.
