AT A GLANCE
Why go?
Výhledy Hrnčířské Boudy – Bouda Mír is a high mountain trail junction and viewpoint sitting around 1,065–1,070 m in the central Krkonoše (Giant Mountains), inside the Krkonoše National Park above the market town of Černý Důl. Here three marked routes — red, green and blue — meet at the meadow clearing known as Hrnčířské Boudy, beside the Bouda Mír mountain cottage, making it a natural hinge point for hikes in every direction.↗↗↗
The draw is the sense of standing in one of the old Krkonoše "boudní" meadow settlements — a cluster of timber mountain cottages on an open slope between Liščí and Černá mountains — with the ridge panoramas, the network of trails, and a welcoming cottage with home cooking right at the crossroads.↗↗
A crossroads in the old boudy meadows
Hrnčířské Boudy (in German, Töpfer Bauden) is a small high settlement formed by a group of mountain cottages — "boudy" — on a broad meadow enclave roughly 400 metres across, set on the south-west-facing slope below the Sokol saddle between Liščí hora and Černá hora. The viewpoint takes its name from this clearing and from Bouda Mír, one of the two larger cottages that flank the upper edge of the meadow and serve as guesthouses; the other is the Náchodská bouda at the opposite corner.
