Caynoning near Lake Bled

The Alpine region of Slovenia is known for its clean and pure rivers, lakes and streams. We invite you to discover and explore them with us. The canyons are located near Lake Bled, within the Bohinj valley. Many canyons in Slovenia are part of national parks and protected areas. We made it our goal to offer everyone a chance to experience Slovenia’s nature first hand. We explore two canyons near Lake Bled, each with its own unique set up of jumps and descents, and abseils.

Slovenia Canyoning Lake Bled Activities Adventure

What do I need for canyoning?

All the equipment needed for a safe canyoning adventure is provided by us; it includes a two piece 5mm thick wetsuit to protect you from the refreshingly cold water, a helmet, climbing harness, and neoprene shoes. You will need to wear a swimsuit underneath the wetsuit, as well as a towel to dry off at the end. A bottle of water to drink is useful as well.

Trip itinerary

The Lake Bled canyoning adventure (or Bovec) usually takes about 3 – 3.5 hours. We start in Bled or Bovec town, depending on where you are staying. The drive to the parking area at the canyon takes about 15 minutes. Every participant receives their equipment, and changes into the wetsuit. We then go on a short hike to the entry point of the canyoning where we go through the safety procedures. The guides will explain all the necessary safety precautions, and show you how to follow the instructions. The actual descent through the canyon usually takes around two hours, depending on the size of the group. After the trip, we walk back to the van, change clothes, and return back to Lake Bled / Bovec.

In order to ensure the best canyoning experience for everyone, we make safety the first priority on all our trips. Consequently all our guides have every necessary license and plenty of experience. It is very important that every participant listens to the guides’ instructions carefully, and always follows them. There are age and height limits that apply without exceptions.
