What is rafting?

Rafting is a recreational activity utilizing a raft to navigate a river or other bodies of water.This is usually done on whitewater or different degrees of rough water. For rafting it is necessary to have a group of 6-10 people and at least one experienced guide (skipper) who knows how to handle the white water rafting. You also need a raft boat and the appropriate equipment.
Rafting is divided by the strenght of the river and type of boat that we use. There are gradations of the river in categories I. - VI.

Category I. - calm river just like a lake, and category VI. - ussualy impossible to pass without a flip.

When is it possible to raft?

It is possible to raft when the water level is high, when the river exceeds the average of 22 m³ per second. When the water level is lower, it is the perfect time for canoe safari, i.e. calm water rafting. On our site it is possible to check Kupa’s water level. After each greater rainstorm the river exceeds 22 m³ per second. When that happens, and if you prefer white water rafting rather than canoeing, it is the right time to visit Severin na Kupi.
