We ascend by cable car from Tatransk\u00e1 Lomnica to Lomnick\u00e9 sedlo (pass), the starting point for most guided climbs to the majestic Lomnick\u00fd \u0161t\u00edt, and we finish by descending to Skalnat\u00e9 pleso (lake).<\/p>\n

The classic ascent<\/strong> begins at Lomnick\u00e9 sedlo and traverses Lomnick\u00e1 kopa. This route is equipped with fixed aids such as steel steps and chains.<\/p>\n

    History and the first ascent of Lomnicky Peak<\/h2><\/div>
    <\/div><\/div>

    Lomnicak was long considered the highest summit in High Tatras and the locals used to call it \u201cGrand Father\u201d in the past.<\/p>\n

    Very likely, the first person to summit Lomnicak was a famous English adventurer and doctor Robert Townson. His ascent from Mala Studena Valley, leading via Filmarky Colouir, via Lomnicke Pass, and up the today\u2019s standard route.<\/p>\n

    It is certain that the summit was also reached by Spis gold-diggers who were in search of their fortune in the north parts of Lomnicky Peak. And one more piece of history \u2013 a shepherd Jakub F\u00e1bry who worked in the region between 1860 to 1890 and would boast that he climbed to the \u201cGrand Father\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
