Hi, this time we rented a Colorado raft. Our friends have never paddled before and have three children. We wouldn't get in our canoe.
Water condition: 68 cm and flow 6.5 m³
River: Opava
Boarding place: Grove in Silesia
Exit point: Jilešovice
Route length: 5.8 km
Map: mapy.cz/s/nesarapelu
Translated by Google translator:
This route is ideal for a relaxing day trip. The raft is well controlled on calm water and the crew soon had the vessel under control. In our favorite bay we had lunch, coffee, talked for a while and then we continued on. We ended up in Jilešovice in the Kamenec restaurant, where they have the best fried potatoes in the world!
Equipment: Almost all shots are shot and edited on the iPhone 11 and sometimes supplemented with shots from the drone DJI mini 2 and GoPro Hero 8.

Canoe Gumotex Pálava:
The Pálava inflatable canoe will impress with its sporty appearance and excellent riding characteristics. Thanks to the extended fuselage, it offers a large space for luggage and the variability of seat installation, which with its width and horizontal attachment provide comfortable seating. When sailing in rapids, it is possible to kneel and use thigh straps. The canoe is suitable both for tourist river descents up to WW3 difficulty and for a comfortable ride on the calm surface of dams and lakes. Canoe paddlers can not let Pálava go!

Raft Gumotex Colorado
COLORADO 450 is a universal boat for a holiday trip on the river with the family or for sailing on white water of medium difficulty. The six-seater boat is designed for a sporty way of sailing. The open stern ensures the outflow of water when sailing in rapids. The legendary COLORADO served as a vessel on many expeditions to remote corners of the world and is still the most popular racing boat in the Czech Republic.

In general:
Take a virtual tour of the beautiful river in the Pálava canoe.
You can see beautiful meanders, fallen trees across the river, bank erosion, etc.
I live near the rivers Odra and Opava and I often go to them to relax. I found that while paddling in a canoe and watching the landscape, I would take a great rest and gain strength for the next few days.
Usually I start a fire by the river, make something or at least make coffee and sometimes sleep. It's such a boating bushcraft :)
I am a hiker and paddler who likes to take photos along the way and sometimes shoot something. Maybe it will be an inspiration for someone or he will look at places that are inaccessible to him. From a canoe, the perception of landscape and nature is completely different.
I'll be happy if you write me something. If I know, I'll be happy to answer.
