Fans of extreme outdoor activities will appreciate rafting in the canyon of the river Tara in Montenegro. You can choose for yourself 1, 2 or 3 days route with an overnight stay at the campsite by the river. Rafting on the canyon of the river Tara has become one of the most popular types of tourist activities in Montenegro.
The canyon of the river Tara is the deepest canyon in Europe. The length of the canyon is 82km (51mi) and depth up to 1300m (4265ft). This is the second largest canyon in the world after the Colorado canyon in the USA. Canyon Tara is a part of the national park Durmitor and is listed as a UNESCO world heritage.
The one-day rafting route is designed for 2-3 hours 18km (11,2mi) long. The beginning of the route starts from Brštanovica and ends at Šćepan Polje, where 21 of the 50 rapids of the Tara River are located. It should be noted that in spring the river is more affluent, therefore the level of extreme at this time is much higher. Hot summer the water level in the river drops significantly, so you can feel all the delights of rafting and passing river rapids with minimal risks. At this time even children up to one year old take part in rafting with their parents. To ensure your safety before rafting, you will need to wear special water thermal suits and shoes, as well as life jackets and safety helmets.
Montenegro, gliding along the mirror-like surface of the river, relaxation and enjoying the sounds of nature in calm areas, emotional outbursts of overcoming the turbulent flow on the rapids of the river will give you unforgettable emotions. On the steep rapids of a mountain river, it captures the breath from bright sensations, and in quiet backwaters of a calm current it captures the spirit from the frantic beauty and grandeur of the surrounding nature. In the crystal clear water of the river you will see river trout. On one of the tributaries of the Tara, you can admire a mountain waterfall. Throughout the entire stretch of the path, you will feel the breath of a fresh mountain breeze, as well as in some parts of the river, hot and dry air from a hot air dryer. It is difficult to describe with words what you feel while rafting. You just need to feel it yourself one day!
