Climbing Gerlach<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

Gerlachovsky Peak ascent is a full day climb\/trip that is possible during any season, however, all depends on current conditions. The peak is reachable via couple of routes of various difficulty. Our mountain guides will happily take you on any of them based on your skill and your comfort level, of course.<\/p>\n

Due to its lower level of difficulty the most popular ascent route leads through Velicka Proba. For those more experienced and adventurous we recommend climbing Gerlach via Martinovka or Dzipsiho Ferrata routes (challenging routes pricing applies).<\/p>\n

We start all Gerlach ascents from hotel Sliezky Dom, and all of them provide spectacular views!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

First ascent and history of Gerlach<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

The first visitors to Gerlachovsky Peak area and the peak itself were hunters and botanists, and it is quite possible that some of them reached even the summit.<\/p>\n

The first proven person to stand atop Gerlach, in 1834, was a Spis-German mountain guide J\u00e1n Still (1805 – 1890) who at the time was a teacher in the village of Nova Lesna. He was accompanied by his brother in law, Gellhof (a builder from Velka), a miller Martin Urban Spitzkopf, and two unknown chamois hunters.<\/p>\n

The first Slovak ascent was completed in 1875 via Batizovka Proba by mountain guides from Stola – J\u00e1n Ruman Drie\u010dny jr. and J\u00e1n Paster\u0148\u00e1k.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
