The 20km track starts at Frymburk and goes all the way around the dam until Frydlava, where you can take a ferry back. It's very easy to take the road by bike - a bit harder by inline skates, as the surface is a bit rough in few small spots (getting better each year). There are also few smaller slopes, so be prepared. Refreshments and restaurants are available nearby.
An all-year round bobsleigh track.
A familiar hostel in a rustical building, some 20 minutes from Hochficht by car - also possible to get ski passes here.
A hotel with wellness, bike rental (Lipno Centrum) nearby.
A camp with all the standard equipment, good prices. Chalets available.
A quite popular camp.
