RAFTING ON SOČA RIVER

Rafting on the Soča river is one of the most popular adrenaline activities in Slovenia. Experience the stunning natural beauty of emerald Soča river in an exciting way. Almost three hours of genuine contact with nature awaits you in an unforgettable experience that will remain as a beautiful memory of the Soča valley.

Rafting on Soča on the 8-kilometer route from the bridge near Boka Waterfall to Trnovo ob Soči offers a diverse range of rapids, starting with gentle sections that gradually build up to more challenging parts of the river. This variety allows both beginners and seasoned adventurers to enjoy the experience, accompanied by a guide who ensures safety and navigational expertise.

The duration of 2-3 hours allows participants to fully immerse themselves in the wilderness of the emerald Soča river. There are no special skills required for rafting except you need to know how to swim (you need to be a good swimmer).

TIMETABLES:

Rafting is available in the low and high season every day at 10:30 and 14:30. For a more adrenaline ride we recommend visiting the valley in the spring and autumn time due to the higher water level of the Soča river.

ADRENALINE RAFTING TOUR

Surrounded by magnificent mountains in the beautiful nature, rafting is the perfect getaway when visiting Soča valley. The Boka-Trnovo route (around 8km) is a perfect blend of both easy and more challenging rapids, catering to different levels of adventure seekers.

Starting near the iconic Boka Waterfall when water levels permit or from Srpenica I during summer months, the journey promises a thrilling experience. The descent, typically lasting around 1.5 hours, presents a mix of calm sections and more intense rapids, reaching up to level IV. This diversity ensures an adrenaline rush and an exciting journey down the Soča river.

The opportunity to pause for activities like jumping, swimming, and raft sliding adds an extra element of fun and adventure to the trip. Concluding the rafting adventure in Trnovo makes it a perfect ending, allowing participants to soak in the experience before returning back to Bovec.

Adrenaline rafting tour: Duration – 2,5h to 3h, on the river 1,5h

PRICE: 65€ per person (high season)

FAMILY RAFTING TOUR

A family rafting tour along the upper part of the Soča river sounds like an amazing adventure for all ages. The gentle grade 1-2 rapids promise a safe yet thrilling experience, perfect for families seeking an enjoyable time together.

Exploring the stunning upper section of the Soča river allows for a delightful journey amidst clear waters and picturesque landscapes. The inclusion of opportunities for jumping into emerald pools from perfect rocks adds an extra element of excitement and fun for everyone.

The mention of the river’s section where scenes from the movie “Narnia” were filmed adds a touch of cinematic charm to the adventure, allowing participants to connect with the magic of the surroundings.

This family rafting tour offers a perfect balance of adventure, natural beauty, and memorable sights, making it an ideal choice for families looking to create lasting and exciting memories together in the Soča valley.

We arranged an extensive tour that showed us parts of Slovenia we would never have discovered ourselves. Our tour guide Miha was an amazing driver and very knowledgeable with the history of the areas we visited. Our highlights were Trenta valley with Soca gorge, the Italian WW1 trenches and Tolmin gorge. We also really enjoyed the Goriska brda wine tasting experience. An experience we will never forget thanks to Miha.

Really enjoyed the Soca valley guide tour with Mateja, she kept us organised and gave us good information about each stop. Visited many stunning places that it was not easy to get to by public transport in a short trip. Activities felt safe and well organised - I’d never tried rafting before and it was a lot of fun. Really worth booking.
Great tour through the Triglav National Park with a highlight being rafting on the Soca. Great guide Miha with perfect English, very polite and friendly. You always feel safe and well looked after. Always happy to do it again, worth the money for anyone who doesn't have their own car.

I had a wonderful day with Miha on the Soca valley guided tour. So many beautiful views around the Triglav National Park and the rafting was so much fun! I booked this adventure as a solo traveler but made friends with everyone fast and definitely recommend for solo travelers, couples and small groups.

Our group of 3 had an amazing tour with Miha. We saw all the major highlights of the area and Miha took amazing photos of our group! Two of us had never ridden an e-bike and Miha did a great job ensuring we felt comfortable on the bikes and tailored the path to our level. We were delighted with how far we rode and the places we visited. 10 out 10 would do it again!!

You are the best !!

My girlfriend and I took a guided tour of the Julian Alps, we were in Bled, but they came to pick us up and we did this beautiful tour. We saw amazing waterfalls, large lakes, some incredible mountain scenery and finally the amazing Soca River with its gorge. This incredible nature is worth seeing.

We could not have been happier with our tour with Mateja! We only had one day in the Soča valley and she planned a tour to make sure we saw as much as possible. We had lunch in a charming town, went to a natural wine shop, and had the most magical day exploring. We learned so much from Mateja, and she went above and beyond by sharing photos and tips for the rest of our trip after the tour as well. We wish we had more time here and would recommend Discover Soča to anyone looking for the best experience with a local guide. THANK YOU!

Thank you Discover Soĉa Tours & Transfers for organising such an unforgettable experience! From the first email to the final goodbye, I felt well supported and looked after by Mateja and Miha.As a young female solo traveller, travelling in off season, it would have been impossible to see everything I wanted using public transport. Thankfully, Mateja and Miha were able to adapt to my budget and make my dreams a reality!My objective was to see the highlights of the Soĉa Valley, and we did just that (and more!). From visiting incredible natural gems to trying local Slovenian cuisine, together, we certainly achieved a lot across a 3 day transfer and tour itinerary.Having a knowledgeable and friendly guide like Mateja really made the whole experience even more amazing. You can tell she is very passionate about her country, its traditions and its people, so I learnt so much more than I could have than by doing it on my own (plus, it is always nice to have someone there to take pictures of you!).If you are wanting to experience the Soĉa Valley to its fullest potential, Discover Soĉa Tours & Transfers is the perfect fit for you. Save the stress of renting a car and instead, sit back and enjoy being looked after.
