Discover the Una’s Serene Soul
Experience the world-famous Una River from a different perspective. Away from the thundering rapids, this guided kayak and canoe safari invites you to glide through the calmer, yet equally stunning, sections of the Una National Park. In your own boat, you will set the pace, paddling through crystal-clear emerald water, exploring gentle currents, and discovering hidden river beaches.
This is the perfect adventure for families, couples, and anyone seeking a peaceful connection with one of Europe’s most beautiful rivers. Listen to the sound of birds, watch fish swim in the clear depths beneath you, and soak in the tranquility of the lush canyon. Our friendly guides will lead you on a safe and enchanting journey, sharing their love for the “one and only” Una.
The Challenge: What to Expect
This is a relaxing, easy-to-moderate tour designed for maximum enjoyment and suitable for all skill levels, including complete beginners. No prior experience is needed. The stable kayaks and canoes are simple to handle, and the calm waters make for a stress-free paddle. It is a wonderful way to be active and enjoy the outdoors without the intensity of whitewater rafting.
Your adventure will include:
