What you'll see
A lazy float on the Vltava as it loops around the old town and under the castle, sliding down small wooden weir chutes on the way; several rental places in town hire rafts and canoes with a ride back.
A brief history
Floating timber down the Vltava to Prague was a trade here for centuries; the chutes over the weirs were built for the rafts.
