Description

Leave the city behind and travel by canoe through deep gorge that Sazava carved just outside the capital. The gorge is full of not just incredibly dense forests and dramatic rocks but also little cabins that locals built in the late 20th century. The guide will give you detailed instructions at the beginning of the trip and you will have enough time to try steering the boat on flat water before you start. Your guide will be there for you any time you need assistance, though it is unlikely you will need their help after the first few strokes of your paddle. Going down the river takes about 4 – 5 hours including a few little breaks to breathe the fresh air and of course, you will stop for a small lunch en route. An added bonus of this trip is the way you get to the very starting point – by a local train line that cuts through rocky terrain with some outstanding stone-made viaducts along the way. You need no special gear for this trip. In case of very low temperature and rainy weather, it is recommended to use a wetsuit that you get upon request.
