Overview

Would you like to paddle on crystal clear blue water with beautiful scenery all around you? We are offering a week of summer kayak paddling on the Soca River in Slovenia that can be tailored to suit your own personal needs. We can support you to improve your personal skills, leadership and coaching. We will be staying in a Gite near the town of Bovec.

There are also opportunities to achieve British Canoeing qualifications, if appropriate, and we can arrange a package to suit you. Some qualifications are subject to registration and appropriate pre-requisites
