The best fishing spots around Hůrka and our apartments
Directly in the vicinity of Hůrka there are many quiet bays and shores that are ideal for catching carp, but also predators. Try exploring places away from the main beaches where you will find more peace and privacy. Our guests often head to areas where the Vltava river flows into Lake Lipno, or to less frequent sections along the cycle path.
Hůrka Fish Hatchery: Guaranteed catch for everyone!
Just a few steps behind our apartments you will find the Hůrka Fish Hatchery. It is a great place for fishermen of all ages and skills, even for those who do not have a fishing permit! It is a perfect choice for families with children who want to try catching their own trout, char or carp. A catch is guaranteed here and you can then take the fish back to our apartment and grill it. More information about this unique opportunity can be found on our page Hůrka Fish Hatchery.
