Competing in six Summer Olympics, she won two gold medals in the K1 event, earning them in 1996 and 2000.
Hilgertová also won fourteen medals at the ICF Canoe Slalom World Championships with seven golds (K1: 1999, 2003; K1 team: 2003, 2005, 2010, 2013, 2015), five silvers (K1: 1997, K1 team: 1991, 2006, 2007, 2011), and two bronzes (K1: 2007, K1 team: 1989). The K1 team silver in 1991 and K1 team bronze in 1989 were with Czechoslovakia while the remaining medals were for the Czech Republic.
She won the overall World Cup title twice (1992 and 1998). She also won a total of 15 medals at the European Championships (7 golds, 5 silvers and 3 bronzes).
She announced her retirement from the professional sport in October 2017, at the age of 49. She did, however, state that she intends to continue competing as an amateur.
Her husband Luboš Hilgert is a former canoe slalom paddler and a multiple medalist from ICF Canoe Slalom World Championships. Their son Luboš is an active canoe slalom paddler as well. Amálie Hilgertová is her niece.
