The mountain 
 Mieluszowiecki Peak Czarny (2,410m - 7,906ft )  meaning  The Black Mountain peak is a summit in the High Tatras located on the Polish-Slovak border, in the main ridge of the Tatras.
The summit was formerly called the Młyguszуw Peak over Czarny. Its walls fall with half a kilometer perches towards this lake. The north-eastern perch is finished by Kazalnica Mięguszowiecka, from which a famous north-east wall , erected vertically and cut by eaves, descends. The eastern wall (about 300 m high) falls in the direction of the Upper Devil's Kotta , whose basin is bounded by the north-eastern roost of the Mieguszowiecki Black Peak and the cliffs descending from the walls of Beef Ridge. In the north-west ridge, falling in the direction of Mięguszowiecka Przełęcz pod Chłopkiem, there is a lonely turkey called Chłopek (hence the name of the pass).
