Spring time activity, one day on Soca river
Price for adults:
80 €
Short description
Our Full day Bovec rafting tour is a perfect combination of beautiful scenery and whitewater adventure. We start our whitewater rafting tour on the romantic upper Soca at Golobar, which section is a perfect getaway, has playful rapids, splashy whitewater and time for relaxing floating. You can see the 3rd gorge of the Soca, hidden side creeks with pure water, narrow parts of the river with hanging bridges, a 106 m high waterfall (Boka waterfall) and a great scenery of the surrounded mountains.
The second part of our full day Bovec rafting tour goes on the most challenging whitewater rafting section of the Soca river, through a scenic gorge filled with white boulder garden and splashy class II-III whitewater. We would like to spend our time with surfing in the waves, jumping from bigger and smaller rocks, enjoying the slides on the bottom of our raft. In the end of the trip you can try swimming in an easy rapid, to feel how powerful can be whitewater rivers.

Founder, guideI love waters from my childhood. I started as a flat water canoe competitor, later I navigated my sea kayak along the sea coast and around many islands of Croatia, on the Adriatic. Recently I paddle mostly in whitewater kayak, but I still like every kind of water. In the time of the university I was working during the weekends as a rafting guide in Slovakia, Austria and Slovenia. After a few years of unsuccessful attempt as a horticultural engineer, I returned to the whitewater. I was working as a guide almost every day since 2008. Summertime in Slovenia, wintertime in Chile. Now, I am using the experience of many years in our company. In my free time of course I go cycling, or to the mountains, or I ride the Soča with my kayak. The Soča river is one of the most beautiful rivers I have ever paddled and this is the valley, where I am very glad to guide you!Petra
Founder, Contact managerhanks to my parents, I was sitting in a boat very early, mostly on flat waters of Hungary at first, and later on whitewaters of Austria as well. Later I was falling in love with the sea kayaking: a lot of water, huge distances, remote islands with all the beauty and danger of it. I went to South America spending half year there with Gyula, and I could see really high quality of whitewaters, and what does it mean, living close to the nature? From that time, there was no option to return to a big city and to my "old" life. We moved to Slovenia, to Bovec. I have a pharmacist degree, and I have thought I will cure the people with drugs, but I found something in Slovenia, what is able to cure in a better way. This is, what I would like to show you. I am always glad to go to the water, or to ride my bike roaming the countryside, or so happily put on my boots to go to the mountains of Julian Alps! This is my real world!Jofo
