Main Sudetes Trail

Mieczysław Orłowicz Main Sudetes Trail (Polish: Główny Szlak Sudecki im.

Mieczysława Orłowicza, GSS) is a public hiking trail in Poland running along the Sudetes.

For the next 20 km it merges with the Polish–Czech Friendship Trail at Szrenica and runs on the main ridge along Polish and Czech border, to reach its culminating point, Sněžka, the highest peak in the Sudetes.

There are many mountain huts and small hotels, especially in the western and middle parts,[1] although some of them offer only common sleeping rooms and refreshments.

Polish mountain huts are obliged to overnight each person who is not able to find any other place before sunset or in an emergency.
