The article presents the results of the first detailed geomorphological mapping of the Žiarska, Jamnicka, Raekova, and Bystra Valleys, situated on the southern slope of the Western Tatra Mountains. The field work was supplemented by digital topographic as well as statistical analysis of rock glaciers distribution. The author focused on the distribution and morphological features of moraines and rock glaciers. Variability of both sets of deposits strongly reflects topographic influences on debris and snow accumulation. The main factor controlling the geometry of landforms was solar irradiance modified by the influence of the local cirque topography. Two generations of the rock glaciers indicate distinct phases of periglacial conditions during the Late Glacial period.
