Wooden Bridge Over Mengusovský Potok

A large part of the route runs along this stream, when you get higher it gets strangely quiet :)

Porters' base in Mengusovská dolina

Highlight • Rest Area

Here are all the (already half-loaded) baskets and individual things that volunteer porters can carry up to the Rysy hut: tomato sauce jars, potato sacks, Kofola barrels, etc.
And lo and behold: a whole lot of hikers are lugging these things up! And sometimes it's not easy!

A beautiful mountain tour up this mountain.
At first we thought it was about to start raining, but we had perfect mountain weather and good visibility.
There were enough people out and about.
At the end we hiked to the mountain cemetery with its beautiful, colorful crosses.
