Yavorov Hut is a complex of two buildings in northern Pirin, in the Polyanite locality on the left bank of the Razlozhki Suhodol River. The old building was constructed in 1933 by the Pirin tourist society in Razlog under the name Polyanite Hut, funded by donations from the municipality, the society and private individuals. The new two-storey building was constructed in 1981. The hut is run by the Pirin tourist society in Razlog. The total capacity is 91 places, 70 in the new building and 21 in the old one. The new building has a restaurant and a buffet, and its rooms have heating and sanitary facilities.
The hut is a starting point for Vihren Peak, Vihren and Predel huts and Koncheto Shelter, as well as for short excursions to Kamenitsa Peak, Razlozhki Suhodol Peak, Suhodol Lake, the Stalbitsite ridge and Okaden Peak. It lies near the largest alpine karst area in Pirin and on the E4 European long-distance path. In 2016 the All Saints chapel near the hut was consecrated, and every year on the first Sunday after Pentecost mountaineers gather there for a blessing.
