Water sports cruise through Prague's historic center via three Vltava weirs
This traditional water sports event, organized by Prague scouts since 1939, offers a unique opportunity to sail through the historic center of the metropolis on the Vltava River. The entire program begins at the Císařská louka area in Smíchov and ends at Štvanice Island in the heart of Prague. The race is intended for experienced and recreational paddlers, scout groups, and the general public interested in an unconventional view of the city. During the six-and-a-half-kilometer long route, participants on canoes or paddleboards will overcome three well-known Prague weirs. Complete technical details and registration information are available on the organizer's official website.
