A New Way to Explore the Alpe-Adria Trail

Welcome to a truly unique adventure in the heart of the Soča Valley, where hiking meets river fun.

We’ve joined the Alpe-Adria Trail initiative with a fresh idea: combine part of the trail with an unforgettable descent on the Soča River. It’s the perfect way to enjoy nature from a whole new perspective—on foot and on water.

What is the Alpe-Adria Trail?

The Alpe-Adria Trail connects Austria, Slovenia, and Italy. It’s known as a journey through the “Garden of Eden” thanks to the stunning landscapes along the way. Our base lies right on the trail—and here, we add something special:
Paddling through the Garden of Eden.

Why Packraft?

The packraft is a lightweight, inflatable boat—easy to carry, stable, and safe. It’s a fun, beginner-friendly alternative to kayaking that lets you enjoy whitewater without needing technical skills.

Packrafts weigh just four to five kilograms and pack down to the size of a water bottle. They're ideal for hikers who want to experience part of the trail from the river. You’ll glide over turquoise water surrounded by mountains—effortlessly and safely.

Choose Your Route

We offer two guided descents on the most beautiful stretches of the Soča River:

Classic Descent
Start near the 106-meter Boka waterfall and paddle to Srpenica 2.
Approximate duration: 1 hour and 40 minutes on the water.

Integral Descent
Begin in the charming village of Čezsoča and paddle all the way to Srpenica 2.
Approximate duration: 2 hours and 20 minutes on the water.

Both routes follow calm sections with fun, manageable rapids and stunning scenery.
