Tag - Ďurková Pass
Ďurková Pass – a mountain pass at an altitude of 1709 m a.s.l. in the Low Tatras in Slovakia. It is located in the western part of the Low Tatras, in their main ridge, between the peak Ďurková (1751 m a.s.l.) in the west and Chabenec (1955 m a.s.l.) in the east.
Sedlo Ďurkovej is formed in the granites of the core part of the Low Tatras. The wide and not very deep pass descends quite gently to the south-east towards the side valley of the source area of the Łomnistá Valley. In the north-west, it descends in a wide, steep gully to the valley of the Ľupčianka stream.
The slopes of the pass are covered with mountain vegetation. The Ďurková Pass lies in the territory of the Low Tatras National Park. Below the pass, on its southern slopes, there is the Útulňa Ďurková pod Chabencom shelter, and next to it there is a source of good drinking water.
