This beginner to intermediate level trip is designed to introduce our guests to whitewater and educate them on contemporary use of equipment on whitewater rivers while floating through the scenic environment.

We show you how to use the paddles to navigate safely in the fast-flowing river, working together as a team, following the instructions of the guide. The Soča river rafting experience is a beautiful and exciting trip also for families from March 15 till the end of October.

However, the temperatures and overall weather conditions seem to make your trip more enjoyable in the summertime, for the more adventurous looking for bigger rapids and not so comfortable ones, we highly recommend participating in Spring and Autumn time when the snow is melting or raining more often making higher water flow that pumps up the river features resulting a more extreme feel of the activities. To bear with colder conditions we are equipped to give you thicker wetsuits and spray jackets.

In order to avoid the peak tourism season and get away from the crowd, It is also highly recommended to visit the Soča valley in Spring and Autumn.

The river was beautiful. My family really enjoyed the small waves and the bigger splashes. The kids were having an amazing time. Jumping off the big rock in the middle of the river seemed a bit scary at the beginning but totally worth climbing up for the jump.
