A trip abroad: Martinova bouda, Labská bouda and the source of the Elbe
It's worth setting aside 6–7 hours for this route — especially as there are several mountain huts on the way with plenty of Czech specialities. Don't count on vegetables, but you won't go hungry, not to mention the slivovitz, Czech beer and pancakes.
