Rafting on Orava River
Contacts
Description
Rafting takes place on the last section of the Orava river from Párnica to the confluence with the Váh river near the village of Kraľovany. The canal is also suitable for people who have no experience with rafting, and for families with children. The sailing itself takes an hour to an hour and a half, depending on the watercourse and the crew. Everyone will appreciate the beauty of the local countryside, the diverse flora and fauna and the beautiful views of the surrounding mountains.
This section of the Orava river is navigable throughout the season. Each participant gets a swim vest, paddle and brief training. In each boat, there is always an instructor, who explains everything and takes the whole rafting with crew. It not necessary to know how to swim. Participants always end up their route by their vehicle.
