The Krotenseespitze ( Slovak stit Javorový , polish Jaworowy Szczyt , Hungarian Varangyos-TAVI Csúcs , German also: Krötenseespitze ) is a 2417 m high peak in the main ridge of the Tatras between the Jaworowaspitze ( Maly Javorový Štít ) and the tips of the tower ( Ostrý stit ) .
topography
The Krotenseespitze separates the Krotenseescharte ( Javorová škára ) from the Jaworowaspitze . To the west is the western peak ( Prostredný Javorový Štít ) of the Krotensee peak . Together with the Jaworowa peak and the maple towers, the Krotensee peak forms the maple wall ( Javorový múr ) - one of the mightiest rock faces in the Tatras.
In the direction of the Great Kohlbach Valley, southeast of the summit of the Krotensee peak, the several hundred meters long Gray Ridge ( Sivý hrebeň ) stretches above the hiking trail from the Roterturm Pass ( Priečne sedlo ) to the Zbójnicki Hut. Along the Gray Ridge are the Gray Schartl ( Sivý priechod ), the Gray Koppe ( Sivá kôpka ), the Gray Bank ( Sivá lávka ), the Gray Monk ( Zadná veža ), the Gray Notch ( Štrbina vo vežiach ) and the Gray Dwarf ( Predná veža ). The maple gallery ( Javorová galéria ) extends southwest of the ridge , a sloping terrace bordered from below by the Javorové veže .
On the ridge that descends from the main summit to the Red Bank ( Jaworowa Przełęcz ) stand the chives towers ( Sivé zuby ), which are separated by the grassy chives örl ( Sivé vrátka ).
History and nomenclature
The name of the mountain refers to the Krotensee ( Žabie Javorové pleso ), which is located at the foot of the Krotensee peak in the rear maple valley ( Zadná javorová dolina ), north of the Krotensee peak . The first ascent of the Krotenseespitze was on August 13, 1897 by Charles Englisch, Antonina Englisch and Johann Hunsdorfer, the first winter ascent by Gyula Hefty and Gyula Komarnicki on December 9, 1911.
