Adventure Vacation in Croatia Rafting


 
 
Rafting - trip detail
After 25 km from Split and Makarska, the town Omiš, a picturesque of the pirates' origin could be reached. It is situated at the source of the river Cetina and ander slopes of the mountains Mosor and Biokovo. As such, it offers many different activities in the nature starting from walking, cycling, canoeing, free climbing, paragliding, diving, sailing and rafting.


1a) Rafting - class I-II (cca. 9,5 km with finish at the restaurant Radmanove Mlinice)

Guests will be greated at the restaurant in Radmanove Mlinice (6 kilometres from Omiš, along the left coast of the river Cetina), where transport will be organised to the starting position. Trip will end in Radmanove Mlinice after 3-4 hours of drifting through the canyon of one of the most beautiful Croatian rivers. During the high seasons the air temperature amounts up to 30° C whereas the water temperature reaches 20° C being thus fit for swimming, hidro massages and etc.
Along the whole path the plain portions of the river and currents, estimated as ones of the I and II level, are being varied. Although these currrents could be easily managed, the combined manoeuvres are necessary. Since the whole path does not require specific physical capacity even the children accompanied by their parents could participate in rafting (30% of discount ).

At the beginning of the trip the crew and the guide should be introduced, the necessary equipment shoud be taken and tried out (swimming jackets, helmet, paddle ).
Within the starting point the river happens to be calm, therefore this point should be used as the site where the visitors could grasp the basic knowledge in order to have a beter and safer trip. The folloving part of the river is affluent with currents, different obstacles, water falls and abundant vegetation which creates natural tunnels giving thus the impression of being far away from the civilisation. At this portion of the river a beautiful cave behind the water fall Studenci is to be visited. Having visited the cave, the visitors will enjoy their meal during the break. By approaching Radmanove Mlinice, the river is becoming calm giving to the guest the possibility of settling down the impressions.


1b)Rafting - class II-III (cca. 7 km with start at the Blato na Cetini)

Rafting trip at this part of the river Cetina is possible if a flow is 12 cubic meter per second or more ( usual flow during summer is 5-8 cubic meter per second).
Gathering is at the gas station in Zadvarje (unless previously arranged otherwise). Buses will be waiting there to take us to Blato na Cetini (start point).
Our journey will take us through the magnificent canyon of River Cetina, with average depth 40-100 meters, and it will last approximately 2 hours. At the end we will climb to the place where buses (or guests cars) will be awaiting.
