Tip 2 // A must-see for every whitewater fan:<br />
RAFTING ON THE SOČ A.<br />
18 km of whitewater in unspoilt nature // This is something we definitely don’t want<br />
to miss. We rent the equipment in Bovec from Goran, an experienced white water<br />
specialist from Soč a Rafting. There’s nothing stopping us now.<br />
Of course, experiencing nature is first on our list, but that doesn’t mean we don’t<br />
want to have some whitewater fun. Our rafting tour begins after the third gorge.<br />
The Zmuklica embarking station has a cable car and is located upriver behind the<br />
bridge over the Koritnica. The trip gets off to a great start: with grade 3 rapids<br />
and ten out of ten for the stunning landscape! After Č ezsoč a, the Soč a turns into<br />
a fast-flowing river. Shortly afterwards we see the wonderful Boka waterfall that<br />
crashes out of the middle of a cliff from the Kanin mountains.<br />
THE TRIP GETS OFF TO A GREAT START: WITH GRADE 3 RA PIDS<br />
AND TEN OUT OF TEN FOR THE STUNNING LANDSCAPE!<br />
In the late afternoon, we pitch our tents on a spacious gravel bed. We still have<br />
one big tin of goulash, but after eating delicious trout the day before, nobody is in<br />
the mood for tinned food. Didn’t we just spot a few fishermen down by the river?<br />
Steffi uses her charm to our advantage and actually manages to return with three<br />
huge trout. We set up a campfire and cook the fish on sticks. The perfect way to<br />
keep our energy levels up for tomorrow’s challenge.
