The whole route is very pleasant, before the summit, difficulties begin in the form of a more difficult section where you have to use your hands. I recommend a wonderful summit!

The cross on Kriváň, known as the Cross of Lorraine, is a characteristic feature of the mountain peak. This cross, which bears the name "Kriváň", is located on the summit and is a national symbol of Slovakia. This cross, also known as Caravaca in Spain and Italy, was meant to protect those who wore it from the plague. This cross is also an element of the coat of arms and flag of Slovakia, which makes it a national symbol.
