The small village Prední Výton lies on the right bank of the Lipno Dam about 3 km south of the village Frymburk, 731 m a.s.l.
Originally there were monasteries of hermits of the orders of St. Paul and St. Anthony. The village was property of the monastery in Vyí Brod. Both local monasteries were consolidated at the end of the 15th century (1491) and in the second half of the 16th century they were closed.
The dominant feature of the village is the Gothic Church of Sts. Philip and James. It was built in 1515 in the place of the original church, which was founded in 1385.
The port of ferry, which links Frymburk with the opposite bank of the Lipno Dam, is in the part of the village, which is called Predmostí (or Frýdava).
