A prominent rocky tooth in the main ridge, part of the red ridge trail, the highest peak of the Roháče. The ascent from Baníkovské sedlo is relatively easy (by Tatra standards), but the approach from Hrubá kopa, along with the crossing of Ostrý Roháč, can be considered the most difficult section of the marked ridge areas of the Western Tatras. In good weather, the view is excellent.
