Overview

Have you ever been to a capital city, where you can explore a big part of the city from a SUP or a canoe? No? Read on…

This adventure starts near the city center of Ljubljana, where we meet up and give you a SUP or a canoe of your choice. Our instructor then takes you through the introductions of the chosen sport and everything you need to know for a good ride along the Ljubljanica River. The tour begins near the Ljubljana Marshes, where you can see some interesting sights close to the city. After that, we will paddle toward the city center, where we will enjoy the magnificent scenery of the old town and its many bridges.

Along the way, your guide will teach you about some of the city’s history and share some fun stories and local facts about Ljubljana. We believe that seeing the city from such a unique point will be the highlight of your time in Ljubljana.

We believe that everybody deserves what they want. So we will always give groups the option to pick their beloved sport. You can choose between a canoe or a SUP, which are all included in the price. Just choose your favorite before the start of the tour and you’re all set.

Activity

Ljubljanica is a quiet river that meanders slowly through the marshes, where you can relax in the tranquility and views of the wilderness as well as the city. At our starting point, you get all the equipment and needed instructions. Once we are set, we head to Ljubljana downtown along our waterways. The trip will introduce the capital of Slovenia in a nontraditional way – by a SUP or a canoe*.

By paddling you will get a comfortable stretch and enjoy the fresh air. It is a unique opportunity to see Ljubljana from a different perspective and observe the famous city center architecture.

If you don’t feel comfortable paddling by yourself, we will take the big canoe and row together through the Ljubljana Marshes and all the way to Ljubljana’s city center and back. The canoe is also suitable for children.

Difficulty
Easy to moderate, depending of the wishes
