Husova bouda, Mountain lodge in Pec pod Sněžkou, Czech Republic.
Husova bouda is a mountain lodge in Pec pod Sněžkou situated at about 1065 meters elevation with access to winter sports slopes and views of surrounding peaks. The house offers half-board service with regional meals and straightforward accommodations for hikers and skiers.
The building was founded in 1830 originally as Koppennblickbaude and has served as a mountain shelter for travelers for nearly two centuries. Its name changed over time while its role as a stopping point for mountain visitors remained unchanged.
The lodge is run by the Konkol family, who practice traditional Czech hospitality by serving regional dishes to guests throughout their stay.
Access to the lodge is via mountain hiking trails around Pec pod Sněžkou, requiring sturdy footwear and weather-resistant clothing. The best times to visit are during winter snow season or summer months when hiking conditions are more favorable.
The lodge uses mattresses of the same specification as those found in New York's Ritz hotel, creating an unexpected blend of mountain simplicity and luxury comfort. This attention to detail ensures visitors sleep well despite the high altitude and remote location.
