Kayaking on the Sava River

About the Activity

What to Expect

Explore the beauty of Slovenia during this tour in our sit-on-top kayaks on the Sava River. We will gather at our base in Radovljica, where you will meet our team, with whom you will spend an unforgettable day on the water. Our experienced guides will equip you comfortably and safely, providing you with neoprene shoes, a neoprene suit, a life jacket, a helmet, and an anorak if necessary. Our open kayaks are easy to handle and allow free movement, making them perfect for both beginners and those simply seeking an exciting kayaking experience.

The adventure begins at the confluence of the Sava Bohinjka and Sava Dolinka rivers. Here, our guides will teach you everything about safety on the river, proper paddling techniques, and the course of the descent. As we start paddling, you will find yourself navigating through calm areas to master the basic strokes and positions. Along the way, we will stop several times in beautiful pools where you can swim or jump into the water, adding a refreshing twist to your adventure.

Our journey concludes when we reach the finish line, where our vans will be waiting to take us back to our base. After changing into dry clothes, you can relive your adventure by viewing pictures of your day on the river. This open kayak descent is an ideal choice for those looking to enjoy fun rapids full of adrenaline without the need for extensive training. The Sava River offers thrilling opportunities for whitewater activities, with kayaking being a favorite among both beginners and experienced paddlers.
