Easy Canoe Mission to the Sázava River from Prague
After 15 years of hiking, biking, climbing, and canoeing in the greater Prague area, we discovered that this is the best adventure around. Leave the city behind and lose yourself in a deep gorge full of dense forest, dramatic rocks, and little cabins built by locals during communist times.

This was a perfect choice. Myself and my two teenage children who were now fed up of sightseeing and crowds. This was an ideal escape for the day for some fun We were picked up from up apartment on time. Martin the guide drove us an hour outside of Prague. The countryside is idyllic you cannot believe you are just an hour from the city We stopped in a cafe and had coffee and pastry before arriving at a train stop We travelled on a 2 carriage train for around 30 mins. This was lovely and added to the adventure We collected our two man canoes and life jackets. You will get wet feet and bottom half The river is lovely and we came down several weirs which the kids loved. We stopped half ways for lunch and a drink which was included. It was scrumptious chezch cuisine in a riverside pub We were surrounded by chezch families all enjoying a day out on the river It was peaceful and fun. I would highly recommend this trip. Me and the kids all had a fun and tiring day out.

Description
Your guide will give you detailed instructions at the beginning of the trip, and you’ll have time to try steering the canoe on flat water before getting started.
Your guide will be there for you any time you need assistance, though it’s unlikely you’ll need help after your first few strokes of your paddle.
The journey takes about 3–5 hours, including a few little breaks to breathe in the fresh, humid air. A small lunch en route is also included.
An added bonus of this trip is the train journey to the starting point. The railway cuts through rocky terrain and across some outstanding stone viaducts. If you don’t have a head for heights, you better not lean out the window!
You don’t need any special gear for this trip. In case of very low temperatures and rainy weather, we recommend wearing a wetsuit, which we provide upon request.
