Krawców-Wierch-Hütte, Mountain hut in Żywiec Landscape Park, Poland
The Krawców-Wierch-Hütte is a wooden mountain shelter located on Krawcula Meadow at 1025 meters elevation, accommodating 32 visitors across multiple room types. The facility includes a dining room, sleeping areas, and operates year-round to serve hikers and visitors.
The shelter was completed in 1976, marking an important milestone in Polish mountain tourism through Edward Moskała's initiative. This construction was part of a broader effort to develop hiking infrastructure across the mountain region.
The dining room with its central fireplace serves as a gathering space where visitors share their mountain experiences and enjoy views of the surrounding ridges. This common area brings together hikers from different regions in a relaxed setting.
The shelter operates daily and serves meals to guests, accepting only cash for payment. It is advisable to check opening times in advance and bring sufficient cash for your stay.
From the nearby Halna Pass, visitors can observe three mountain ranges spread across two countries: the Silesian Beskids, the Little Fatra, and the Babia Góra massif. This vantage point offers a rare view of the region's diverse mountain systems.
