Our meeting point is in front of our Bled office. By prior arrangement, a guide can also pick you up in front of your accommodation in Bled. You will then take a ride to a river section in Camp Šobec, which is an assembly point for rafting Sava River. Here, you will find the necessary equipment, including a life jacket, helmet, paddle, and more. You will also change into a neoprene suit. A guide will provide you with safety instructions and explain the rules of conduct in the raft. You will place a raft on the river with a guide and other participants in a group. Once you sit comfortably on the side of the raft, the fun part of the tour begins.
When going down the river, the guide will show you several rowing techniques and tricks on how to use paddles to steer the direction of the raft according to the river stream, how to turn and more. You will use rowing techniques on rapids, on curves, and between smaller white boulders. On your journey, you will have many opportunities to freshen up and jump into the crystal-clear water. After an hour on the river, the rafting Sava River adventure ends in Globoko village, where you will pull the raft ashore. Here you will change into your clothes and take a ride back to Bled.
Rafting Sava River tour is available from April to October when the water levels offer the best experience of going down the river. During the high season, we carry out the trip twice a day. The first tour starts at 10:10 am when we drive off from Bled to the riverbank with a pickup vehicle. We will depart from Bled at 13:40 if you would like to go on an afternoon tour. As our agency collaborates with several tour providers from Bled, minor discrepancies may arise regarding the river section entry point and Bled departure times, particularly during the summer season when this activity is highly popular.
Fun Rafting on the Sava River is a family-friendly adventure designed for all ages, including kids! Children over 5 years old and taller than 120 cm (tall enough so that they can see from the raft) are welcome to join—provided they know how to swim. Kids sit in the raft and not on the side of the raft as adults do. Parents or guardians should be able to judge if a child can endure at least one hour on the river. This gentle rafting experience offers just the right mix of excitement and safety, making it a great introduction to outdoor water sports. However, for safety reasons, the activity is not suitable for non-swimmers, pregnant women, or individuals with heart conditions.
