Once you'll climb new via ferrata in beautiful gorge of Pivovarsky stream, Lesser Fatra mountains you can be rewarded by signing of brand new "summit" register.

It is placed in classic metal container, mounted to a big rock. There are new benches with a table right next to the register, so you can sign it comfortably.

Lesser Fatra (Malá Fatra) is a coreal mountain in the north of Slovakia, in the district of Žilina. It is part of the landscape as a whole Fatra-Tatra area, which is part of the Internal Western Carpathians. After the High, Low Tatras and Oravské Beskidy, it is the fourth highest mountain with a rich and relatively preserved west Carpathian nature.

Via Ferrata starts in elevation 930m ASL and it's rated as difficulty B (A = easiest, E = toughest). 200 metres higher trail splits into 2 - straigh one is easier (B) and shorter, more difficult one leads to right across wild waterfall. Both are leading to one point above the valley next to summit register. So far there are over 400 metres of steal ropes, 80 krampons and 160 fixed points installed. Available are 3 rest areas with picknick tables and 4 bridges.
