The Bieszczady National Park Tourist Shelter "Chatka Puchatka" on Połonina Wetlińska (formerly the PTTK Shelter "Chatka Puchatka" on Połonina Wetlińska) is the highest shelter and accommodation facility in the Bieszczady Mountains (1,228 m above sea level). Located at an altitude of 1,228 m above sea level, the facility was built after World War II by the military and served as a WOP observation post. In 1956, the building was taken over by the PTTK District in Rzeszów, but it has only been operating as a year-round, staffed facility since 1967.

Mountaineering

The only shelter in the Polish Bieszczady Mountains on the top of a mountain. It was rebuilt on the site of the original Pooh Hut a few years ago. An absolute must-see for a trip to the Bieszczady. Inside there is something to eat and drink.

Beautiful views as long as the clouds aren't too low ;)

It looks impressive, plenty of space to rest. Lots of benches.
