Facts and practical information
Ważecka Turnia - a two -tilted peak in a long ridge leaving south of the top of Ostra in the High Tatras. This ridge separates the valleys: Furkotna in the east from Sucha Ważecka in the west. From the Massif of Liptów Turnia rising in this ridge in this ridge in the north of the Massif with the nearest extreme Liptów Turnia Ważecka Turnia is separated by a deep and narrow indentation of a sharp switch. The southern limitation of the Turnia massif is a saddle, behind which the ridge culminates in a saddle copy.
In addition to the proper Turnia Turnia vertices, a number of subordinate climaxes and saddles stand out on the section of the ridge between the sharp switch and the saddle. These are : Ważecka Turnia - two vertices, north and southern, between which there is Ważecka Szczerbina, indirect Ważecka Szczerbina, Ważecki finger, Niżnia Ważecka Szczerbina, Ważecki Kopiniak with two vertices, between which there is Szczerbina in Ważecki Kopiniak, Ważecki Karb, Ważecki Ząb, Ważecki Karbik, Ważecka Kopa - two vertices, northern and southern, which separates Ważecka Przehyba, Szczerbina over the Turniczka, Turniczka nad Szczerbina, Szczerbina under the Turniczka, kick over the saddle.
None of the marked tourist routes lead to Ważecka Turnia. It is visited by mountaineers most often on the occasion of crossing the ridge. Steep, rock walls fall off both sides. Only cliffs falling to the Furkotna Valley are available for mountaineering. The eastern wall, with a height of 150-180 m, leads many climbing roads, the first of which was led on July 24, 1933. The goal of climbing is also Ważecki Ząb with its Eastern Pillar.
