Who is this trip designed for.
Paddlers from White water beginners up to those almost at BCU 3 star white water standard.
If you paddle at a higher level than this, then this trip is not going to excite you. You can still come, but have a chat with us first.
Especially suited to those fed up with always paddling in the cold.
Partners and families welcome, there is lots to do in the area for non paddlers.
Their will be time for sightseeing as well as paddling.

Where is the Soca river.
We base ourselves in Bovec, in the Soca valley, in The Julian Alps, Slovenia,
This area not only offers the most fantastic paddling but the most fantastic walking, climbing, biking, rafting and sight seeing.
The water at this time of year is expected to be fantastically clear, blue, and cold and the air temperature to be in the high twenties.
so even if you do go for a swim, you are usually pleased of the chance to cool down.
