Temniak (in Polish Ciemniak, 2090 m a.s.l.) is a mountain in the Western Tatras in the Červené vrchy group on the Slovak-Polish border. It lies in the main ridge between the peaks of Kresanica (2122 m), which is separated by Mulové sedlo (2067 m), and Poľská Tomanová (1977 m), which is separated by Tomanovské sedlo (1686 m). The ridge descends to Tomanovské sedlo over a rock formation called Stoly (1947 m). To the southeast, the slopes of the mountain drop into the gully of Zadný úplaz leading to the end of Tomanovská dolina, while to the southwest they descend into Dolina Tomanowa. To the west, a ridge extends as Wysoki Grzbiet, and to the northwest, a ridge as Twardy Grzbiet is squeezed between Dolina Kościeliska and Dolina Miętusia. The mountain is primarily composed of dolomites, with crystalline rocks occasionally surfacing. Many caves can be found on the slopes of the mountain, such as: Jaskinia Miętusia, Jaskinia Lodowa w Ciemniaku, Studnia w Kazalnicy Miętusiej, and Jaskinia Wysoka za Siedmioma Progami.
