“Větřní” weir

A necessary novelty only for the year 2023 is MANDATORY OVERRUN NO. 2!!

Due to the reconstruction of the sports sluice on the Větřní weir, we are forced to include overrun No. 2 in the race.
The Větřní dam will run along the marked corridor along the right bank. The course will be marked in the field in exactly the same way as the traditional course at Pískárná (corridor marked with tape, navigation signs on the river upon arrival).

The only thing that will be different is the “split corridor” for the entrance back to the river. While canoes, kayaks, paddleboards will re-enter the river via a concrete ramp along the closed sports culvert, large canoes, rafts, punts and multi-seat paddleboards will enter via a sandy ramp approximately 50m further downstream.

!!!RIDING THE WEIR IN ANY PART OF IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND THEREFORE STRICTLY PROHIBITED!!!
