Siodłowa Turnia - a rock formation rising in the upper part of the Mała Łąka valley in the Western Tatras, south of the summit of Mały Giewont. It is separated from it by the Siodło saddle. It forms a short, narrow ridge with a prominent peak, rising to an elevation of 1,647 m above sea level. It creates a high cliff, about 150 m, above the Głazisty Żleb. Siodłowa Turnia, along with the peaks of Mały Giewont and Wielka Turnia, creates a panorama of summits towering over the Great Glade in the Mała Łąka valley.
It was previously known as Turnia Siadła or Turnia Spiczasta. It is composed of white limestones from the Lower Cretaceous period. On its northern slopes, there are several caves. The most famous are Nyża in Siodłowa Turnia and the Sleeping Knights Caves, Wyżnia and the Sleeping Knights Cave, located in the Żleb of the Sleeping Knights. The names of the caves are related to the legend of knights sleeping under the Tatras, who will awaken when Poland needs them.
