Whitewater Kayaking
Waves, drops, and the proper whitewater the Soča is famous for. For paddlers who already have a roll or who want guided coaching on real rapids.
Whitewater rafting is what you do when you want the river to surprise you. Whitewater kayaking is what you do when you want to talk back.
This trip puts you in a creek-boat or a river-runner — sized to your build and experience — and we run the same upper-Soča rapids the rafts run, plus a few that the rafts can’t get into. Class II–III with one cleaner-looking IV that we’ll scout from the bank and run only if conditions and your skill level match. The Soča is technical without being malicious: read-and-run holes, well-defined eddies, no recirculating death-features.
This is not a “have a go” trip. You need basic whitewater skills before you book. If you don’t have them, take a [Kayak Lesson](/activities/kayak-lesson/) first — that’s exactly what it’s for.
