Besídka Dvorská bouda
We have been going to Dvorská bouda for more than 10 years and we love it for many reasons. Always enough snow, high mountain rough conditions, frequent wind, more challenging terrain and the border of the 1st and 2nd zone of KRNAP. Warm hut, great cuisine, homely climate, lecture room with fireplace and sauna.
The event will include both basic courses for beginners and lectures on the technique of riding in more difficult terrain for more experienced snow kiters. The main programme of lectures will be on the weekend, i.e. Friday and Saturday. Courses and riding will then take place throughout the event. In case of strong winds or weak winds, skialp trips to the surrounding area (Luční bouda, Sněžka) will be organized.
On the program are lectures for beginners and more experienced snowkiters. The lectures take place on Fridays and Saturdays and are accompanied by video presentations and photos.
