Veľká Svišťovka

The first significant landmark above the valley at the entrance from Biela voda. Accessible via the Sedlo pod Svišťovkou saddle (2,023 m a.s.l.), built as early as 1930. The evangelical pastor Šimon Bilík (1613–1680) from Huncovce hid here for five years (1672–1677), digging tunnels in search of gold. Three preserved tunnels remain near the current trail; the deepest measured 11 m.

The first documented tragedy in the massif occurred on 13 July 1701, when a member of the Kežmarok military unit fell and died during ascent.

Malý Kežmarský štít

The dominant peak of the valley. Simplicissimus and students of the Kežmarok Lyceum may have been the first to stand on it in 1615. The first recorded ascent took place on 21 August 1889 — Samuel Weber with companions, after whom the peak was named in 1890. Its current name dates from the end of the First World War.

Its 900 m north face is the highest rock wall in the High Tatras. First climbed on 18 August 1912 by Július Andrej Hefty and Gyula Komárnicky. Today 109 climbing routes run through it. The wall is crossed by a prominent ledge — the German Ladder — named after the access route of German miners from the Fábry family, who mined copper and malachite here in the 18th century.

Lomnický štít

Hidden from the cottage behind the massif of Malý Kežmarský štít, but clearly visible above Medená kotlina from the trail to Červená dolinka. David Frôhlich was probably the first to reach the summit in June 1615.

Pyšný štít

First known ascent by Edmund Téry on 8 August 1877, with M. Spitzkopf.

Spišský štít

Baranie sedlo

An important crossing from Zelené pleso Valley to Malá Studená dolina. In winter months it serves as an official ski touring route.

Baranie rohy

First written record of an ascent — Stolarczyk, September 1847.

Čierny štít

Originally known as Papyrus Peak. First known ascent on 24 July 1898 — Antónia Englischová with her son Karol and mountain guide J. Hunsdorfer.

Kolový štít

Probably first ascended by Stanisław Staszic in July 1804 — from Javorová dolina descending into Zelené pleso Valley. The name derives either from the circular shape of the lake in Kolová dolina, or from the relief of the southwest face whose three pillars resemble sharpened stakes.

Jastrabia veža

The most prominent landmark of the valley. Originally called Kráľovský nos (King's Nose) or Karbunkulová veža — treasure hunters believed the gemstone Carbuncle lay on its unconquerable summit. First known ascent on 28 July 1891 — Lajoš Petrik with mountain guides Štefan and Matej Faith.

Jahňací štít

The first written record was made by R. Townson on 9 August 1793. Accessible via a marked trail built in 1912, secured by a chain below the Kolový prechod (2,092 m a.s.l.).

Kozí štít

Named probably by hunters and shepherds who lived in the surrounding valleys. First known ascent — Samuel Weber, 4 September 1895.

Žeruchové veže

Named after the abundant occurrence of Cardamine — a small violet-coloured plant — found at their base.

Kopské sedlo

A marked hiking trail crosses this pass. Historically used by bandits and smugglers, and later by miners searching for copper in the Belianske Tatry massif — hence the names of the two valleys it divides: Predné and Zadné Meďodoly (formerly Koperšady).
