Tour Description

Course Description

The combination of fast-flowing whitewater and technical, boulder-choked sections makes this destination ideal for the more experienced whitewater kayaker who enjoys creek boating — but also suitable for brave beginners. If you have experienced the Soča River in summer, we highly recommend coming back in spring to discover this stunning river under different conditions.

With higher water levels, this course is the perfect step-up towards higher-volume rivers. At the same time, there are plenty of suitable sections for beginners as well. Think of stretches that are often too low in summer, such as the Upper Soča or the Koritnica.

During this course/holiday, our instructors will guide you on the river. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced paddler, you will paddle for 5 days in a small group (maximum 6 participants) with paddlers of a similar level. Each day you will explore a different section of river, ensuring continuous challenge, technical progression, and improved river reading skills.

We are happy to explain how the course/holiday works, what to bring, and how to travel to the location. Please also read our page Holiday – Important Information for additional details.
