Distances for the cross-country and ski-touring routes come from the trail operators, not from a route planner – a groomed track does not follow the summer path. Elevation and time are estimates.

How to get there

Parking
The car stays at the apartments (free parking) – you set off on skis from the door.
Getting there from us
The route starts right at the apartments, no transfer needed.

About the trip

The most demanding ski tour from the apartments. Through Ručičky and Dvoračky to below Kotel (1,435 m) – around 900 metres of ascent and seventeen kilometres. The Kotel cirques are a strictly protected area: stay on the marked routes and do not ski into the cirques.

Personal tip from us

Check the avalanche situation and the winter closures in the Krkonoše National Park before setting out – some paths are closed in winter to protect the area.
