Luční bouda, Mountain lodge in Pec pod Sněžkou, Czech Republic.

Luční bouda is a mountain hotel on the White Meadow at 1,410 m above sea level in the Krkonoše range, about 1.2 km northeast of Luční hora and 1 km northwest of Studniční hora. The present building dates from 1939–1940 and covers 5,600 m² of built area; it is the oldest hut on the Krkonoše ridges and one of the largest in Europe.

A stone with the year 1623, found during work in 1869, is taken as the founding date, though a wooden hut may have stood on the White Meadow since the late 16th century. The first written record is a 1707 sale contract. The building burned down on the night of 1–2 October 1938 and was rebuilt to plans by Ludwig Stigler, finished in 1941.

Luční bouda sits close to the summit of Sněžka and draws walkers from both the Czech and Polish sides of the mountains. The terrace and dining room fill with people resting after long trails, making it a natural meeting point at the top of the range.

The lodge is reached by marked trails from Pec pod Sněžkou and other starting points in the national park. Weather on the high plateau can change quickly at any season, so warm layers and waterproof gear are worth bringing even in summer.

Luční bouda stands on one of the windiest spots in the Czech Republic, where storms can arrive at any time of year and snow in summer is not unusual. Guests who stay overnight often wake to a completely different view of the surrounding landscape than the one they arrived to.
