Rocky paths and lake views on Luč

Leave Lipno port for the forests of Šumava. Quiet woodland paths, striking granite formations and viewpoints make this a varied circular walk. Back beside the lake, the promenade is a lovely place for a break.

Combine your walk with a cruise

Take a cruise to Lipno and begin your walk at the port. The circular route returns to the same port. Allow around 4 to 4½ hours including breaks, and choose any onward sailing accordingly.
