Jaworzynka Bielska (1,259 m) is one of those rare Tatra summits that remains truly untouched — a forested peak rising above the village of Ždiar in the Belianske Tatry range, where wildlife and silence reign undisturbed. Its very inaccessibility is what makes this corner of the mountains so special.
The peak sits on a spur running northward from the main Belianske Tatry ridge, nestled between Zadné Jatky and Prostredné Jatky. Dense woodland covers most of the summit, giving way to a small mountain meadow on the southeastern side — the only spot where the surrounding ridges of the Belianske Tatry open up to the eye, and on a clear day you can spot Spišská Magura, the Levoča Hills, the Orava Beskids, and the border peaks of southern Poland. In summer the forest hums with birdsong, in autumn it blazes with colour, and in winter deep snow transforms the whole area into a pristine wilderness.
How to reach the summitThe Belianske Tatry are the only part of the Slovak Tatras built predominantly from limestone, giving rise to a uniquely rich flora — rare and endemic plant species have flourished here for decades, sheltered from human footfall.
