This hostel lies at the altitude of 968 m a.s.l., in a large Stare Wierchy clearing in the western part of the Gorce, near a trail stretching from Turbacz to Rabka. From the hostel's windows and a nearby clearing, in good weather you can admire a panorama of the Tatras, Beskid Wyspowy and some of the Gorce peaks, and on a clear day you can even see the Babia Góra Mountain.
This one-storey chalet-style hostel was built in 1932. Unfortunately, it was burned down in 1945 by German troops after their fight with a unit of the Home Army.
The new building was officially put into use on 13th January 1974.
The hostel offers 25 beds available in 2-, 3-, 4-, 5- and 7-person rooms. In the building there is a cafeteria and a kitchen with a versatile menu.
In winter, the clearing's ski slope offer favourable conditions for alpine skiing. Nearby the hostel there is a ski lift open for winter. Around the hostel, there are also many trails for enthusiasts of cross-country skiing, as well as trails for those who enjoy horseback riding or biking in summer.
