Description
Escape the city and discover one of Croatia's best-kept secrets on this full-day adventure from Zagreb. Paddle through the spectacular emerald canyon of the Mrežnica River, kayak beneath cascading waterfalls, swim in crystal-clear waters, and visit the fairytale watermill village of Rastoke.
Your day begins with a comfortable transfer from Zagreb. Relax and enjoy the scenic drive through the Croatian countryside before arriving at the Mrežnica River, where your professional guides will provide all the equipment and a short safety briefing. No previous kayaking experience is needed, making this adventure perfect for beginners and experienced paddlers alike.
Then it's time to hit the water.
Spend around four hours kayaking through one of Croatia's most beautiful river canyons. Paddle beneath stunning travertine waterfalls, float through crystal-clear emerald waters, swim in natural pools, and experience untouched nature far from the crowds. During the hot summer months, the refreshing river offers the perfect escape from the city heat. For those looking for an adrenaline rush, optional cliff jumps of up to 9 metres add an extra dose of excitement.
After your kayaking adventure, continue to the enchanting village of Rastoke.
Often called the 'Little Plitvice,' Rastoke is a fairytale village where traditional wooden houses, waterfalls, and turquoise streams create one of Croatia's most picturesque landscapes. Enjoy free time to explore its charming paths, have lunch at a local restaurant, relax by the water, or take another refreshing swim before returning to Zagreb.
Unlike Croatia's famous tourist hotspots, Mrežnica and Rastoke remain hidden gems that many international visitors—and even locals—have never experienced. This tour combines adventure, relaxation, and authentic Croatian nature into one unforgettable day, taking you to a side of Croatia that most travellers never get to see.
