Enjoy a journey through the gorgeous Tara River Canyon to Šljivansko, the start point of the rafting ride. Before we leave the rafting starting place, this moment is a right opportunity to ask any extra questions you may have.
When you reach Šljivansko (II Logor), the official launch site for the rafting activity, our experienced instructor and skipper will be there to welcome you, introduce you to the canyon, teach you a thorough safety rundown, and help you get ready. To keep you warm and comfortable in the cold river water, we will provide you with high-quality neoprene suits, boots, and safety vests.
Rafts go down into the pristine Tara River. As we follow the currents downstream, we emerge into the picturesque Ljutica River, the shortest river in Europe and home to a highly active spring. You get to look up at the 170 meter architectural marvel from the river as you float beneath the massive Đurđevića Tara Bridge, which is one of the most impressive features of this float. Pausing to take pictures of the breathtaking scenery and swimming in the drinkable turquoise water will be opportunities along the route.
When we dock at Žugića Luka, our river journey comes to an end. At this point, we disembark and take a break to change out of our wet neoprene clothing. Before heading back, you can take a moment to relax on the riverbank and enjoy the peaceful canyon scenery.
After your rafting fun comes to a final halt at Žugića Luka, our organised transport will take you back to where it all began, stopping briefly at the Đurđevića Tara Bridge for sightseeing or lunch.
