Abstract
Fresh well-preserved latero-frontal moraines in the lower sections of the valleys and massive moraine complexes formed by piedmont glaciers are easily recognisable elements of the glaciated landscape of the Tatra Mountains. Since the beginning of the 21st century, these moraines have been the main target of numerical dating by the terrestrial cosmogenic nuclide method (36Cl and 10Be). The maximum glacier advance and retreat from the outer moraines position occurred between 26 and 18 ka. The mean age of moraine stabilisation was well documented at c. 22 ka that is during the Last Glacial Maximum. During this time, 55 glaciers were present in the Tatras, 4 of which were longer than 10 km, and 8 had fronts below 1000 m. The mean equilibrium line altitude (ELA; 1580 m) was about 1000 m below the present-day level due to cold and dry climatic conditions.
