Lipno hosts major water sports and cultural festival
The Lipno region is hosting a major series of sporting and cultural events. The water sports program includes the Hiko Devils Extreme Race, which serves as the European Enduro Race Championship and celebrates its 20th anniversary. Other scheduled competitions include the Czech Championship, the Czech Cup, and various paddleboard and slalom races on the Vltava river rapids.
Complementing the sports, the festival features a musical lineup including artists such as Anna K., Čechomor, and No Name. A charitable component, the ČEZ Foundation’s Orange Bike, allows participants to convert physical exercise into financial donations for non-profit organizations, including the Czech Otter Foundation.
Additional activities include night runs and family-oriented races, with proceeds supporting local infrastructure like cycling paths.
