About location

Lipno nad Vltavou lies along the Vltava River, where forested slopes of the Šumava foothills descend towards the broad Lipno Reservoir. The reservoir is Czechia’s largest lake by surface area, created by the Lipno Dam, completed in 1959. The settlement has developed into a major all-season recreation centre, with Lipno Ski Resort on the hillside and the family-oriented Fox Park at its base. Marinas, beaches and paths shape the shoreline, while rolling highland terrain and dense woodland extend inland towards the Bohemian Forest near the Austrian border. Lipno is a practical base for cycling, watersports and mountain activities, and its dam remains an important part of the Vltava hydroelectric system.
