Schronisko PTTK "Srebrny Potok" w Dolinie Srebrnika

Schronisko PTTK "Srebrny Potok" w Dolinie Srebrnika (German: Srebrny-Potok-Hütte) is a mountain tourist hostel in Poland, situated at an elevation of 650 m above sea level in the Biały Strumień (Biała Woda) valley above the village of Jarkowice, on the eastern slopes of the Karkonosze range's Grzbiet Lasocki. It lies within the Sudetes mountain system, in the Lower Silesian region of southwestern Poland. The hostel is owned and operated by the Polskie Towarzystwo Turystyczno-Krajoznawcze (PTTK), the Polish Tourist and Sightseeing Society, which maintains a network of mountain shelters across the country. The facility consists of two identical buildings and offers 45 beds in total. One of the buildings contains a dining room and a kitchenette, and it can be rented in its entirety for exclusive use. The hostel is accessible via several marked hiking trails, making it a base for hikers exploring the Karkonosze and the surrounding Sudetes. Nearby peaks include Śnieżka (Schneekoppe, 1603 m), the highest mountain in the Karkonosze. The hostel was built in 1920, during the period when the region was part of Germany (Lower Silesia). It has served as a mountain shelter for over a century, though its ownership passed to PTTK after World War II when the region became part of Poland. The German name Srebrny-Potok-Hütte reflects the pre-1945 heritage, while the Polish name Schronisko PTTK "Srebrny Potok" w Dolinie Srebrnika is used today. As a PTTK facility, the hostel is part of a broader system of mountain huts that provide affordable accommodation for tourists and hikers. It operates year-round, catering to individual travelers, groups, and families. The hostel's location in the Biały Strumień valley offers access to hiking routes in the Karkonosze Mountains and the Lasocki Ridge. The official website provides information about accommodation, reservations, and local attractions.
