Lipno provides entertainment for the whole family! On bikes, on the water, on the ropes and in the treetops.

Nonetheless, thanks to excellent skiing conditions it is a much sought-after destination even in winter. In summer you can set off for some fun to the Climbing Centre or saddle your bike to explore the beauty of South Bohemia. An exceptional experience can be had at the Treetop Walkway – a unique structure that will take you high above the top of the forest where it is located. And what’s more, it is open all year round.  Accommodation suitable for families with children in the Lipno area is offered for example by Marina apartments, which provide a high level of comfort even for larger families.
