Family-friendly whitewater on the Salza River in Styria, Austria. Inflatable double ducky kayaks, two route choices, and small groups.
“I can definitely recommend the tour with Zita who is a top guide and a real professional on the Kajak. The double ducky is a really beginner friendly and safe way to explore the light white water and the fantastic nature of the soča River. Zita also managed to shot a decent amount of good quality souvenir photos/videos. I think the tour with the double ducky is best suited for partners and/or families because paddling together is fun and parents can have an eye on their children while sitting in the same boat. Kind regards and have a good trip, TobiRead more”
