Kayaking and Canyoning Holiday 
Duration: 8 days
The Julian Alps in Slovenia conceal one of the finest paddling destinations in Europe, the Soca, with its perfect blue waters and pool drop rapids.
This package gives you the opportunity to spend 5 days kayaking & canyoning on the beautiful unspoilt rivers of Slovenia close to the pretty town of Bovec. Suitable for all abilities with beginners up to intermediate to advanced level kayakers with runs up to class 4.
All sessions are tailored to suit your own individuals needs and you will be guided throughout by our well experienced and highly qualified local instructors.
Combining exciting watersports, mountain biking in the Soca valley and a nightime canoeing experience you are guaranteed an exhilarating mix!
You will be staying in Hotel Alp on a half-board basis for 7 nights. The hotel is ideally located in the heart of the town of Bovec and is a modern 3 star hotel with a touch of the traditional. It has 103 comfortable rooms with 218 beds in total. All rooms are equipped with cable TV, telephone, hair dryer and some have a mini bar and balcony. The hotel has two restaurants where you can choose from a wide selection of dishes on the buffet table and enjoy pastries from the in-house patisserie on the terrace or in the Rest A Bar. For further relaxation after a busy day, the sauna awaits, where you can enjoy the new Finnish, Turkish and infrared saunas.
Kayaking
For those keen to learn or improve their kayaking technique we offer full whitewater kayaking courses. This package includes a three day course suitable for beginners or advanced paddlers who would like to improve their technique. We use high end kayaks and gear so we can offer you a great experience. Our kayaking school and instructors always adapt to the specific needs and wishes of individual clients. All instructors have the international “Kayak instructor II and III” licence.
Canyoning
Canyoning is jumping into crystal clear pools, abseiling over waterfalls: an unforgettable experience of nature’s wonders. Canyoning is a sport which invariably causes adrenaline to flow through your veins in massive quantities, not only from the heights and precipices but also due to the unbelievable wonders of nature which you can only experience through canyoning. We offer a 2 day course with the first day introducing beginners and the second day at a more intermediate level. We give professionally guided tours in canyons with a medium and higher degree of difficulty, so a knowledge of abseiling is necessary and always verified prior to the trip. Clients who are new to abseiling are assigned to an experienced guide, who will help them throughout the trip.
