Overview
We take you on an adventure off the beaten tourist path – HIKING, KAYAKING and CYCLING in the interior’s amazing untouched wilderness!
There is no better place to spend hot summers days then in the mountains and on the rivers of the Croatian Highlands (“Gorski Kotar”). This area has so much to offer, but still only few people have discovered its secrets. We take you rafting/kayaking on the MREZNICA and KUPA rivers, on an easy bicycle tour along the river shore and, of course, to the famous PLITVICE LAKES National Park. Your guide will adjust activities and routes according to your abilities and wishes. After the experiences of each day, relax back at the hotel, enjoy your delicious traditional Croatian dinner or go for a short swim in the nearby river. The green heart of Croatia is waiting to be discovered – by you!
