Canoeing/Kayaking on Kupa River, Croatia - Discovery Trip
Overview
Enjoy paddling down the beautiful, remote Kupa River. This is a CALMER TOUR, still including several LIGHT RAPIDS. Water temperatures are often over 20 degrees so you can go for a REFRESHING SWIM. The tour is perfect if you are staying in the Kvarner bay area with its islands, in Istra or Zagreb area.
A true WILDERNESS EXPERIENCE in the Croatian highland is waiting for you on the upper Kupa River. You will have a great time in nature, even if the water is not warm enough to swim in. This tour is calmer than our "Rafting/Kayaking Adventure on Kupa River" and you can easily participate without former experience.
There are 7 short rapids, which are manageable for you by yourself and make for good excitement. You may paddle the parts in between the rapids in whatever pace you like. Take breaks for picnic, swimming, refreshing yourself at freshwater springs or in waterfalls.
After arriving at the finish, change into your dry clothes and we will transport you back to your vehicle.

What To Expect
On this tour you will enjoy the Croatian highland area on the beautiful Upper Kupa River. This section flows through a wild area; the steep forested mountains on both sides create a sort of jungle feeling. Paddling here is not hard, because you simply float down the calm river. You don't need to have former paddling experience. Our two- or three-person canoes are very stabile. Still, there are some short, fun rapids - so it doesn't get boring.
NEW: YOU CAN ALSO GET A RAFT FOR 4-8 PEOPLE FOR LIGHT FAMILY RAFTING.
If your group is large, a guide will accompany you all the way. For families and small groups, it's safe to go on you own. Take your time, go in your own pace and take breaks for picnic and swimming wherever you want.
After arriving at the finish, change into your dry clothes and we will transport you back to your vehicle.
Organized lunch after the tour is possible upon request.
