One snowcat ride from the Strážné - quarry car park to the Friesovy boudy hotel / Andula guesthouse and back takes at least two hours, which is why departure times are in most cases set for each odd or even hour. The number of daily departures and pick-ups by snowcat is determined by the total number of departing and arriving guests.

There is no minimum number, but it is connected with the possibility of using a snowmobile.
