The Gumotex Palava stands out as a dynamic inflatable canoe designed in the 'Canadian' style, catering to one or two paddlers. While it effortlessly glides on flat or coastal waters, its true prowess emerges in challenging white-water environments.
Renowned for its durability, the Gumotex Palava is a robust inflatable Canadian canoe suitable for both beginners and experienced paddlers. Characterized by its sturdy construction, sharp bow, and extended body, it excels in white-water scenarios. The Palava features adjustable rigid seats equipped with thigh straps, allowing it to be paddled solo or tandem, in either a sitting or kneeling position. The combination of rigid seats and the Palava's build quality results in a remarkably stiff structure when inflated, enhancing its performance on various water types, including lakes, estuaries, coastal waters, and white-water.
With ample storage capacity, the Palava accommodates overnight adventures and beyond, showcasing its versatility as a truly multifaceted watercraft.

The Gumotex Palava comes with two wooden seat boards and thigh straps with safety clips. Additionally, you receive a repair kit for minor damages, a valve key, a sponge for cleaning, and a waterproof transport bag with a capacity of 100 liters. This allows you to store, maintain, and of course, use your Gumotex Palava ideally both on and off the water.
For the Gumotex Palava, in addition to traditional accessories like paddles, pump, or life jacket, we also recommend a pressure gauge for measuring operating pressure. This ensures that you inflate your Gumotex Palava properly and safely. The Gumotex Palava can be easily maneuvered alone with a double paddle, and we're happy to assist you in selecting the perfect paddle. If you plan to paddle the Gumotex Palava with three people, we also offer an additional seat bench.
The Gumotex Palava can be easily set up in just a few minutes with a good air pump. Before inflation, you attach the seats to the canoe using the screws and nuts provided. The Gumotex Palava consists of 3 air chambers (one floor and two side chambers), all equipped with easy-to-use push-push valves. These are all inflated to 0.2 bar.
The Gumotex Palava can be paddled alone (with a double paddle) or with up to three people. When paddling with two people, the Palava offers sufficient legroom and space for luggage. This space is slightly more limited with three people, but you still won't bump into the person in front. To accommodate three people, you can mount the three seats on your Gumotex Palava as far apart as possible (the third seat must be purchased separately). This allows you to use the Gumotex Palava ideally with a child.
