Vltava River Rafting
Sjíždění Vltavy
Paddle a raft or canoe down the Vltava River through the old town, shoot a few small weirs and look up at the castle from the water. It is Český Krumlov's most distinctive summer activity.
Several rental outfitters in town, such as Malecek and Pusun, offer rafts and Canadian-style canoes. The shortest route through the town takes about 1 hour and costs roughly CZK 400-600 including transfer. You can also start further upstream at Rožmberk nad Vltavou or Vyšší Brod and float for half a day to a full day. The current is gentle, and beginners can join in, but you must wear a life jacket and keep your phone secure. The coordinates given for this activity are an estimate of the old town river section; check the rental company for the exact starting point.
