Owcze Turniczki — or 'Sheep Pinnacles' — is a jagged row of rocky towers strung along the Žabí hrebeň ridge at around 2040 m, right on the Polish-Slovak border. Famed Tatra explorer Władysław Cywiński once admitted he would have named them 'Shark's Teeth', and one glance at their serrated silhouette makes it hard to argue. Small in absolute height but big in character, this is a wonderfully wild corner of the High Tatras.

The pinnacles sit between Owcza Przełęcz pass (2038 m) and Białczańska Przełęcz pass (2024 m). The eastern, Slovak side drops away in grassy slopes dotted with dwarf pine, while the western, Polish face is rockier in its upper section, opening into the grassy Owczy Upłaz terrace below, which is then cut by a band of walls up to 100 m high. The scenery is raw and unpolished — exactly what many visitors to the Tatras are searching for, especially in autumn when the colours shift beautifully.

• Morskie Oko valley (Rybí Potok) — approach via Owcza Przełęcz pass, moderate difficulty. The pass was historically used by shepherds as a convenient crossing to the Bielovodská dolina valley.

• The ridge of Owcze Turniczki runs exactly along the Polish-Slovak state border.
• The eastern (Slovak) slopes fall within a strict nature reserve zone of the Tatra National Park — closed to tourists and climbers.
• The western (Polish) slopes are outside the designated climbing zones (climbing is permitted north of Białczańska Przełęcz).
• A climbing route leads along the ridge from Białczańska Przełęcz to Žabí štít nižný — rated Grade II on the Tatra scale. All individual pinnacles can be bypassed on either side.

The first recorded summer traverse of the ridge was made on 1 June 1909 by Edward Walery Janczewski and Stefan Komornicki, guided by Jędrzej Marusarz Jarząbek. The first winter crossing came much later — in February 1951.
