Canoeing On Tara River

 

Explore the Tara River in a different and more intimate way in our canoe for wild water. Canoeing on the river Tara will give you a lot of fun and challenges as you steer canoe by yourself. Of course, with the detailed instructions of your guide who keeps track of you all the time and navigate you in another raft and is in charge of your safety. Previous experience is not necessary because canoe (inflatable kayak) is very stable, designed for two people and as easy as possible to steer.

Best Time of year for canoeing on the river Tara

Canoeing is most often enjoyed in comfortable weather, so it is best to head to the gorge in the summer and the months that bookend it.

On Canoeing Tara

 

 

Arriving at our base camp Tara 87 in the morning hours (till 10am), you will be welcomed with a homemade breakfast and getting to know the guides and borrowing equipment. All canoeing participants must receive all professional rafting equipment: helmet, vest, neoprene suit, neoprene boots and paddle.

After that, a short trip with our vehicles (40min) to the Tara canyon place Brstanovica, where the tour begins. The guide will introduce you to a safety briefing with all you need to know about canoeing, rowing techniques and swimming in wild waters. Your adventure begins there, in the first 1-2 km you practice and learning techniques of rowing and maneuvering canoe, then following your guide you overcome rapids one after the other. In a section of 18km you will meet with over 20 wild rapids, we will make two breaks at magical places created for swimming, and for those more daring place to jump from the cliffs into the deep and beautiful turquoise green color of the river. Canoeing with breaks lasts 3-4 hours, and the last 2km are on the Drina River, which originates from the Tara River and the Piva River. We are finishing on the bank of the Drina River, where our base camp is located. Then we have a nice domestic lunch in the natural ambience of the camp and your arrangement ends.

The arrangement can be extended or combined with some of our arrangements.

We had a really good time here. Not a lot of bells and whistles, just the most necessary things, homemade with a lot of love.
The operators were super welcoming and helpful.
Above all, I thought it was great that things were so honest and warm here.
The atmosphere was great but the food was even better. Simple, but so delicious!
All ingredients are regional and local.
We found it absurdly delicious, but the chef assured us his only secret was the right amount of salt. So it must have been the ingredients.

We'll definitely be back!

Great experience and super professional. Canyoning in hrcavka river was beautiful.
They know the sutjeska national park perfectly and give super nice advice to go hiking and do other activities in the region.

Beautiful brand new campground nestled in the mountains above Tjentište. Freshly built and super clean facilities. There is a beautiful wooden cabin - restaurant with the most amazing views of the mountain range where they serve great locally sourced food and cold beer. Branko and his team are legends and very good at what they do, they took us canyoning in nearby Hrčavka canyon and we had an amazing time. They also gave us some great tips for hiking routes for the next day. At the end we extended our stay, the location of the campground could not be better for exploring the stunning Sutjeska national park! Book any activity with those guys and I can guarantee you'll have a great time in one of the most beautiful national parks Europe has to offer!

Branco (one of the owners and guides) is a really cool guide, and our experience was awesome too. He's really talkative and ready to explain just about anything if you're interested. The canyoning tour we took was beautiful and exciting at the same time. Took a short 2 hours for us. Definitely worth it, recommended!

We went on the rafting trip with Outdoor Tara and it was 10/10 fantastic! They not only helped us arrange accommodation at the nicest rafting camp with great food the night before but also took us on a wonderful and exciting rafting trip. We loved the small group tour and on our trip it was just my family of 5 on one raft, which was super important. We were also able to leave early to avoid the rush on the river and everything was so flexible. We felt well taken care of the whole time.

Cherry on top was the awesome videos taken from the GoPro that we got for free after the rafting trip!
