The toughest loop around: Ručičky, Dvoračky, Harrachovy kameny, the Hanč and Vrbata Memorial and Labská bouda.

Dvoračky, Labská bouda and Vosecká bouda are on the way – still, carry food and at least 2 litres of water per person.
The distance matches the route planned in Mapy.com; elevation gain and time are approximate. For hiking routes Mapy.com assumes a slower pace, so it may show a longer time.
The most demanding loop in our area – a ridge route taking in all the main sights of the western Krkonoše. From the apartments to Ručičky, past Dvoračky to Harrachovy kameny, on to Zlaté návrší and the Hanč and Vrbata Memorial, then to Labská bouda above the Elbe Waterfall. Back along the ridge past Vosecká bouda and Ručičky. A full day in the mountains, mostly open terrain and rocky paths.
If you would rather not walk the full 23 km: take the Horní Domky cable car up in the morning and start the loop on the ridge – it saves over 500 metres of climb.
