A beautiful PTTK mountain shelter at an altitude of 850 meters above sea level, near the summit of Biskupia Kopa (hence its name, of course). The shelter was built here in 1923, but was later rebuilt. Everything is here: meals, accommodations (50 beds), a restaurant, and even the possibility of organizing discos (probably not for you today, right?). https://biskupiakopa.pl/
