Vodácky klub Pozemné Stavby Bratislava is a recreational paddling club based at a boathouse on the right bank of the Danube, opposite Eurovea. Its main activity is organizing trips along rivers in Slovakia and abroad, combining water tourism and time in nature with friendship and community. The club publishes a calendar of paddling trips and events, and its boathouse provides members with a place for sporting and social activities.

The club’s roots date to the water-tourism section of TJ Pozemné stavby, founded after the sports association was established in 1962. Its present boathouse was built near Bratislava’s Old Bridge and opened for use in 1970. The club chose recreational touring rather than competitive paddling, in part because resources for racing boats were limited. Over the years, members have paddled rivers across many European countries and beyond. Today, the club continues its water-tourism tradition, welcoming a community of paddlers for shared outings, outdoor experiences and lasting friendships.
