Packrafting on the Soča River

A new way to experience the river

Packrafting is the perfect activity for those seeking a unique, accessible, and surprisingly fun river adventure. Our single-person packrafts are lightweight, stable, and easy to handle — designed to take on the Soča’s rapids safely and without complications.

It’s the ideal alternative for anyone curious about kayaking but looking for a simpler, more approachable entry point. With a packraft, you can immediately enjoy a real descent on the river — something that would normally require practice, skill, and technical control with a traditional kayak.

Our expert guides will be with you every step of the way. Whether you're a first-timer or looking to improve your paddling skills, we’ll help you experience the river with confidence and joy.

Why choose packrafting?

Packrafts combine the agility of a kayak with the stability of a raft, offering a straightforward, close-to-nature way to navigate the river.

It’s the perfect solution for those dreaming of paddling down the Soča without needing the technical preparation required for kayaking. With packrafting, you can enjoy the thrill in complete safety and with plenty of satisfaction.

You set the pace — calm and scenic or fast and thrilling. We’ll take you through the most beautiful and spectacular sections of the river.
