Have the Vltava for yourself? It's possible! Warm autumn, fast action and for us the most beautiful stretch of the Vltava Zlatá Koruna - Boršov. Two packrafters alone on the Vltava...
A whopping 17 degrees in late October meant quick action. We originally wanted to go to the Teplá Vltava, but unfortunately it was three centimetres less passable. The alternative solution was my favourite section from Zlatá Koruna.

Then just an early evening train back, hang the boat in the air at home, a beer in hand and off we go.
A great day on the water. I couldn't have asked for more...
