Real Krkonoše partial traverse
Arrival lodging at Pomezní Boudy leads into two mountain huts with verified private-room products, with the broad ridge and its weather fully visible—and no pretence that this is the complete Real Krkonoše crossing.

The useful detail
What the trip really involves
This is a provisional staffed-hut corridor, not the complete Žacléř–Harrachov route. The official headline and stage cards contradict one another, so every recomposed daily distance, ascent and bailout length stays visibly pending until the linked map legs are exported.
Provisional partial staffed-hut traverse
- Route type
- Partial Pomezní Boudy–Harrachov staffed-hut traverse; not the complete Real Krkonoše crossing.
- Stage truth
- The official network is real, but the proposed daily recombination has no verified distance, time or ascent/descent yet. The guide's shortest stage variants total 76.5 km and contradict its up-to-60-km headline.
- Room reality
- Trautenberk is arrival lodging and publishes four-to-eight-bed rooms. The two mountain huts have verified room products: Bílé Labe publishes private ensuite doubles and Labská publishes private room categories. None is live-booked; dated operation and catering remain pending.
- Weather exits
- Avoiding the exposed Sněžka line, descending toward Špindlerův Mlýn from Bílé Labe and using the direct Mumlava descent to Harrachov are corridor ideas only. Exact routes, distances and onward transport connections remain unverified until official map exports and dated timetables are checked.
- Transport
- A 2026 seasonal bus links Harrachov and Pomezní Boudy; the route also publishes a return chain via Jablonec, Martinice and Trutnov. Exact Antwerp travel remains open.
- Luggage
- Assume full-pack carry on all three walking days unless a specific storage or transfer plan is researched; no luggage transfer is promised.
- Stay essentials
- Still check dated opening and catering, liner rules, payment or cash, showers, meal and dietary procedure, and cancellation terms.
- Still pending
- Official-map leg and exit exports, live rooms, dated operation and catering, meals, transport, luggage plan and complete cost.

How the days could work
These are rough estimates and they will be wrong. They are here so we can judge a day for ourselves, not to schedule it. Only timings taken from a source are marked.
