Świnica is a mountain straddling the border between Poland and Slovakia in the High Tatras mountain range.

Notes and recommendations

Thunderstorms can be very dangerous and possibly deadly because of the many chains and other metal supports leading and close to the peak.

I would recommend wearing a helmet during the ascent to Zawrat.

The red marked trail from Zawrat to Świnica is one-way, so it should be avoided turning back on this section of the trail.
