About This Tour

This Bled canyoning tour takes you into the canyons of two wild Alpine rivers, the Jerečica and Grmečica, a short drive from Lake Bled. You hike, swim, slide, rappel and jump into natural pools, with certified guides next to you the whole time. No experience is needed, so it works for first-timers, friends and families who want an active half day near Bled. Photos of your group are included.

What you do in the canyon

  • Drive from Bled: a van takes you through the countryside toward Lake Bohinj. The canyon entrance is about halfway along that road.
  • Gear up: you change into a wetsuit, socks and canyoning shoes before the start.
  • The canyon: about an hour to an hour and a half of climbing, sliding, swimming and rappelling down the river. There are several high jumps, the highest one 10 m. If you don’t want to jump, the guide lowers you down on a rope.
  • Sava Bohinjka: next comes a relaxed float on this river, a calm break after the canyon.
  • Bridge jump: the route ends with a jump from a bridge.

What past travelers say

Past travelers often mention the guides: clear about safety and patient with people who are nervous about the jumps. Several also say the equipment was clean and fit well, and families with teenagers found the route right for beginners. Expect a short hike in your wetsuit to reach the start.

Practical info

  • Duration: about 3.5 hours in total, including the drive and changing.
  • Meeting point: Ljubljanska cesta 1 in Bled, at the office with yellow doors across from the Tale of Us restaurant. The tour ends back here.
  • Pickup: available from your hotel, hostel or apartment. It can happen from 20 minutes before to 20 minutes after the start time, depending on where you stay.
  • Group size: up to 16 people.
  • Before you go: you give your weight and shoe size when you book so the gear fits. From June to August the road toward the lake gets busy, so leave early if you come on your own.

Rated 5.0 out of 5 (497 reviews)

Excellent experience!

This was soooo much fun! Our guides were wonderful. Excellent equipment, safety-minded and absolutely breathtakingly beautiful!! We would highly recommend this trip. Be prepared for a hike in your wetsuit to get to the starting point.

Guide was very helpful

Guide was very helpful and jumps were fun! Felt safe the whole time and all the equipment was provided

Just Wow!

Where to start Klara was a phenomenal guide. This is the 4th one we have done and it was by far the best. She was not only extremely knowledgeable but also extremely personable. Cracked jokes and kept it light hearted the whole time. I tried to book a via Feratta with her the next day but she was unfortunately already booked. Definitely try these guys out if you are in Lake Bled. Short drive and walk to start the experience. If I am ever back there I am 1000% going back to them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to do the high jumps?

No. Every jump is optional. If you don’t want to jump, the guide lowers you down on a rope. Past travelers who were nervous say the guides were patient and helped them try at their own pace.

What should I bring?

  • Swimwear to wear under the wetsuit
  • A towel and dry clothes for after
  • Water or a snack, since food and drinks are not included

How fit do I need to be?

Average fitness is enough. You walk a short way in your wetsuit to reach the canyon, then climb, swim and move over rocks for about an hour or more. The tour is not wheelchair accessible.

Is it suitable for kids?

Most travelers can join. Past travelers came with teenagers aged 13 to 17, and some saw families with younger children on the same route. It is a beginner-friendly canyon, and kids can skip any jump.

What happens if the weather is bad?

The tour needs good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you get a different date or a full refund.
