With a raft suitable for up to 8 people, we will enjoy the quieter sections of the emerald river Soča with smaller rapids. We will paddle past one of the most powerful waterfalls in Slovenia, 106m high Boka while admiring Soča trouts in the crystal clear water.

You’ll be glad to notice that we will always have a view of the highest peaks of the Julian Alps. The route will also take us past a section of the river where a few scenes of the movie Narnia: Prince Caspian were shot.

Before finishing our family rafting adventure near the village of Srpenica, we will admire the peak of Velika Baba sleeping on the slope of Kanin. Let’s overcome the playful flow of the Soča River with joint family efforts. Family Soča rafting is suitable for all ages.

The Soca River originates in the Julian Alps and flows across Slovenia and into Italy until reaching the Mediterranean, yet the 10 km. between Boka and Trnovo is the stretch of the river in which you will test yourself!

The trip starts near the high falls of Boca, though the Soca River has been tamed, it still has a wild side. The strong flow of the river will take you on a trip that you will never forget, you will work as a team with the rest of your crew and paddle away from boulders, whirlwinds and many more obstacles. You will have some breaks occasionally, but only so you can get ready for the next challenge. 

This stretch of the river has class II and III rapids which means you will be engaged and that you'll get a good dose of adrenaline, but you'll be perfectly safe.

It was our first time rafting as a family and none of us had knowledge about rafting. We started our training and then headed to rockier bits if the river. Our tour guide had a few surprises for us besides the rafting.

  • 5 / 5

Rafting through the gorgeous Soca river valley was amazing - so much fun with friendly guides, great quality equipment and brilliant safety advice

  • 5 / 5

Was expecting a bit more extreme rafting rather than a casual boat ride down the river. Great for kids and just a family activity. Although for £90 I would expect much more and longer experience.
