The Itinerary of the rafting Sava River adventure

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, where is an assembly point for rafting Sava River. Here you will get the equipment such as a life jacket, helmet, paddle, etc. 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.

Fun descent on the river rapids

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.
