3 hours (approximately)
Offered in: German and 1 more

Come for a great white-water experience with fantastic waves and rapids. This trip is easy-moderate; in some cases, after rain, it can be very intense. It is perfect for school groups, sport groups, companies, families and couples.

The upper part of the Kupa River is perfect for white-water rafting/kayaking in spring and autumn time. The water level reacts to every rain at that time so you can expect higher water level after rainfall on the Gorski Kotar (Croatian highlands).
We will pass a section of about 7-10 km, which is only 15 km downstream from the source.

The landscape around the river is gorgeous, as is the water purity and colour. We choose the best spot to have a break with cliff jumping and swimming in the rapid. A photographer will follow us and take pictures on the most interesting rapids, which you can receive via E-mail later. After getting to the finish, you can change into dry clothes and we will drive you back to our meeting point at our base camp.

What to expect

On this tour you will enjoy the Croatian highland area on the beautiful upper part of river Kupa. Located only an hour from the city of Rijeka, Kvarner Bay is situated 90 minutes from the Istra Peninsula or Zagreb, this trip will take you down 10 km (6 miles) of the upper part of the Kupa River, only 15 km (9 miles) from the source.

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 rapids acompanied by our experienced guides. You don't need to have former paddling experience. Our two- or three-person kayaks or on higher water levels 6-8 person rafts are very stabile and easy to control.

After arriving at the finish, change into your dry clothes and we will transport you back to your vehicles/river base.

Organized lunch after the tour is possible upon request.
