Is it correct?

The XXX mountain shelter is located at the height of 1034m above sea level. Thanks to its location among (the?) forest glades in(at?) the heart of beautiful mountains, the air is clear and free from urban pollution. Everyone can enjoy here the calm atmosphere of the soothing rustle of trees and the birds singing.
In addition, tourists visiting the shelter may use a few hiking or bicycle trails from spring to autumn. There is also a 500m long ski lift on a slope right by the hut.

I'm interested in abbreviations. Is it right: 1034m or 1034 m? As well as 5% or 5 % etc? What's the solution for spaces? Thank you.

There should be a space in 1034 m (m = meters). There is no space after 5 in 5%.

Thanks, is there a difference between "at a height" and "at the height"?

You also said that you preferred general expressions without "the".

Why did you put "the" in before "beautiful mountains"?

Does it suggest that we say about the mountains surrounding the shelter?

Last question: Can I use "mountain shelter/hut/lodge interchangeably?

Thanks.

I wouldn't agree with putting 'the' in there.
