Andrzejówka hostel

Andrzejówka hostel, Mountain hut in Rybnica Leśna, Poland.

Description

Andrzejówka is a mountain hut in Rybnica Leśna located at 780 meters (2,560 feet) elevation where three valleys meet beneath Waligóra peak in the Sudetes. The building accommodates 35 guests and offers camping on the grounds along with meals featuring regional specialties like blueberry pancakes.

History

Otto and Margarete Rübartsch founded this mountain shelter in 1933, and it hosted Dutch Queen Wilhelmina and Princess Julianna during their skiing visit in 1936. The location has served as an important stop for mountain travelers in the region for over 80 years.

Culture

The hostel hosts traditional festivities throughout the year, including Kupala Night celebrations with fire dancing and storytelling during summer months. Visitors participate in local customs and experience traditions that have been maintained for generations.

Practical

The site is easily accessible via the main Sudetes hiking trails and serves as a good base for day trips into the surrounding mountains. Proximity to mountain biking trails makes it attractive for outdoor activities, and the accommodation offers simple comfortable conditions for extended stays.

Did you know?

The building connects the Western and Eastern Sudetes hiking routes while serving as a registered cultural heritage monument in Poland. This dual status makes it a rare example where modern tourism and historical preservation overlap.
