Canoeing and kayaking are an inseparable part of summer recreation in South Bohemia, and the Třeboň region certainly does not fall short. Although Třeboň itself is not located directly on a large river, the nearby Lužnice River is a paddler’s paradise for both beginners and experienced canoeists. The popular stretch from Suchdol nad Lužnicí through Majdalena and Třeboň to Veselí nad Lužnicí offers a calm and romantic journey meandering through the landscape, ponds, wetlands, and ancient floodplain forests. The river has a gentle current and sufficient water for most of the season, making it ideal for families with children and school trips.
The South Bohemian Region is generally a paddling powerhouse – besides the Lužnice, the Vltava River is also very popular, especially the stretch from Vyšší Brod through Český Krumlov to Boršov nad Vltavou. Along all routes, you’ll find boat rentals, campsites, refreshments, and supporting services. Every year, canoeing events and festivals celebrate the river as a place for fun, friendship, and respect for nature. In South Bohemia, paddling is not just a sport; it is a lifestyle and a way to enjoy the beauty of the landscape from a unique perspective – on the water.
