Water adventures
On the surface of the River Kolpa
Kolpa! Probably the first and most famous association with Bela Krajina! How could it not be?
Slovenia's longest coast is a paradise for both active people and families! Swimming in Slovenia's warmest river is fun for locals and visitors alike. Enjoy the sun surrounded by greenery. Feeling hot? Jump into the Kolpa! No matter how warm it is, it offers real refreshment. Relax in the shade of willows, sunbathe on the gravel. Simply - enjoy!
Rafting
Raft the upstream of the Kolpa! The rapids in the Poljanska Valley are a special experience. Wilderness and the sounds of nature. You need a swimsuit and towel, sun cream, a hat, plenty of water and a snack. You put everything in a small watertight barrel and go rafting. You will be equipped with a helmet, life jacket, water shoes and a paddle, and then your adventure on the Kolpa River begins! Large rafts can take up to 12 people.
In spring and autumn, when the water level is higher, it is a real adrenaline rush on the Kolpa. Although the dams are disappearing, it is the speed of the Kolpa that gets the blood pumping.
By canoe
Downstream of the Kolpa, you can glide along the calm surface in a canoe. The equipment and rules are the same as for rafting. While you can use a rubber raft to reach the most powerful waterfalls, we recommend that you canoe over the falls by hand. The canoe is suitable for two people, making the experience more intimate and the right choice for couples.
SUP-ing
Standing or on your knees? Either way, you need to have balance, which is easier to catch on the calm surface of the Kolpa River than on the rolling sea. SUP is suitable in the lower, wide part of the Kolpa. Paddle out to the middle of the Kolpa and enjoy the calm. It will be difficult to put a barrel of gear on the SUP, so we recommend SUP for short trips.
You can rent watercraft from THESE PROVIDERS.
There is something else you must experience:
Natural massage
Get a massage at the natural dams. Find a dam that hasn't been built yet, sit on a stone, and relax. No whirlpool will massage your shoulders like the flow of the river. Enjoy the sound and the views of the sky and the trees.
