Mreznica Canyon Kayaking Adventure near Plitvice Lakes (Upper River)
Join us for an unforgettable kayaking adventure on the Mreznica River, one of Croatia's most beautiful waterways, located just a short drive from Plitvice Lakes National Park. Paddle through crystal-clear emerald water, over exciting waterfalls and past amazing canyons - a perfect mix of relaxation and excitement.
The upper Mreznica flows through a narrow canyon dotted with waterfalls, so this tour always runs in agile two-person kayaks - the canyon is too tight for big rafts, which makes the ride dynamic and fun. Our family-friendly tours are ideal for beginners and nature lovers alike, with small groups ensuring a personal and safe experience.
Midway through the river you stop for a swim and a picnic break on the riverbank (bring your own picnic), then continue down the river through rapids and waterfalls. At the finish, a local transfer brings you back to the meeting point.
We run daily tours throughout the season. In July and August departures run at 10:00, 11:00, 14:30 and 15:00; in the pre-season and post-season the 10:00 and 14:30 departures are open.
Get ready to cool off, have fun and make memories - book your Mreznica kayaking adventure today!
