Since the Tepla Vltava is located in the Šumava National Park, it is necessary to respect certain regulations, but this is not limiting for those who have respect for nature and want to behave responsibly on the water. However, you cannot afford to miss the beautiful and unique scenery that you will only see on the upper stretch. You can paddle down this section on kayaks and canoes, which we can transport to the starting point upon arrangement. If you enjoy really long paddling, you can even reach the rental location in Černá v Pošumaví directly on the surface of the Lipno Reservoir.

While Lipno is the largest body of water in the Czech Republic, just a few meters beyond the dam is a zone for water enthusiasts that is like a painted picture. Athletes with slalom, downhill, or rodeo boats are already familiar with this location, and rafters will also find what they are looking for here. It is not without reason that it is said that only experienced riders can navigate the waters under Lipno.

Even an advanced rider can easily tackle the rapids just below Lipno, while a beginner can gain further experience under the guidance of an experienced paddler. However, the Devil's Rapids are reserved for the brave and experienced water professionals who know well what to expect in this area. The infamous Window, gap, or stairs are a scarecrow not only for those embarking on this wild ride for the first time. The section of the Vltava River below Lipno is a sought-after location by the kayaking community not only for its difficulty but also for its incredible views and beautiful nature, as the Vltava makes its way towards the sea. Not without reason, international canoeing competitions take place here. Come and ride, or perhaps watch the real warriors in action.
