Tips:
- The look-out point panorama on mount Černá hora.
- The former settlement of Tippeltovy boudy is worth a visit. It is a listed historical village with well-preserved traditional local architecture.
- In the middle of the settlement of Vlašské Boudy is a rectangular chapel called Zvonička. The building serves as a place of repose for passers-by, a shelter from severe weather conditions, or a meeting place for locals. The chapel was built so as to preserve the spirit of the mountains. It offers beautiful views of the surrounding area and is complemented by wooden reliefs and glass components. FUN FACT: When decending from Vlašské boudy you will pass the clearing Fucnerova paseka on the right, which is used as a winter enclosure for deer.
