canyoning
The Canyoning adventure is a combination of walking through a gorge in the knee to waist-deep water, swimming, jumping and/or abseiling off cliffs, and sliding down on the water polished rocks into the pool below. Canyoning is an amazing and unique experience that will leave you breathless. Canyons around Bled are one of the nicest in Slovenia, and we have chosen the ones that we believe best combine the beauty and the thrill. We organize canyoning in the Grmečica canyon and the Jerečica canyon. Our first choice is the Grmečica canyon, but if the water levels are too high or too low we choose the alternate one – the Jerečica canyon.
