Combi Programme for Schools: Rafting and Archery Day in Veltrusy

Q: What equipment is provided?

Guides provide helmets, buoyancy aids, paddles, slalom boats, bows, arrows, and all required safety gear.

On the flat banks of the Vltava near Veltrusy, Czechia, the Combi Programme for Schools blends water and target sports into a single 2.5-hour session designed for groups. Meeting point: Nerudova, 27746 Veltrusy, Czecht. Split into two teams, students spend an hour rafting through a slalom course before swapping to archery instruction on land, then finish with the reverse. The result is a compact, teacher-friendly day that keeps energy high and learning concrete.

Rafting runs on a controlled slalom course that simulates real river currents without exposing beginners to high risk. Expect low to moderate rapids, quick eddies, and the steady rhythm of paddles cutting the surface. The archery station sits on firm grass adjacent to the river, with targets set at progressive distances so novices can see measurable improvement. Together the two activities build teamwork, focus, and physical coordination.

Guides supply all gear: helmets, buoyancy aids, paddles, slalom boats, bows, arrows, and safety equipment. Groups of up to 80 are accommodated, making this a reliable option for whole-school outings or large youth organizations. Instructors deliver structured coaching tailored to mixed-ability groups; emphasis is on safe progression, clear signaling between river and bank, and rotating roles so every student gets time on water and at the target line.

Part of what makes this program special is its place in the Veltrusy landscape. The nearby floodplain and old-growth riparian trees create a clear, open stretch of river ideal for slalom practice and shoreline archery without heavy urban sound. If your group has time, the historic Veltrusy estate park is close by and offers a good follow-up for relaxed exploration or picnic time.

Logistics are straightforward: bring a change of clothes, quick-dry layers, and a towel; transport to the meeting point is not included. The operator provides instruction and course rental but travelers should plan itinerary that includes arrival, activity, and return. Teachers should notify guides of any medical or mobility concerns. The program’s blend of wet and dry skill stations makes it an ideal introduction to teamwork and risk management.
