About This Tour

Morning canyoning in Sušec Canyon is a half-day trip from Bovec into a small canyon a short drive from the village. It’s made for beginners and families, so you don’t need any experience. But you do need to swim, and you should be fine jumping about 3-4 meters into water.

How the morning goes

  • Bovec office: you register and get your gear: wetsuit, neoprene boots, helmet, and a harness or slide pants.
  • Drive and walk: a bus takes the group about 10 minutes to the trailhead. You change there, then walk 20-25 minutes on a mountain trail to the canyon entrance.
  • Safety briefing: the guide shows you how to slide and jump safely before you start.
  • Sušec Canyon: 1.5 to 2.5 hours of natural rock slides (some head first), short waterfalls and jumps into deep, clear pools. The canyon ends right by the parking lot.
  • Back in Bovec: you change into dry clothes, return the gear and see the guide’s photos on a screen at the office.

What past travelers say

Many reviews come from families with kids between 7 and 14. Parents say the guides were patient and kept a close eye on younger children when parts got harder. Even nervous adults say they felt safe. Some describe more than slides and jumps, with a bit of climbing and abseiling too. One traveler wrote about two cancellations, one of them for weather, and a slow refund.

Good to know

The whole trip takes about 3.5 to 4 hours and starts at 8:30 am at the HungaroRaft office in Bovec. Park in one of the marked car parks in the village and walk to the office. It’s a minute from the center. Groups are capped at 15. The guide takes photos in the canyon, and you can buy the full album at the end. It isn’t included.

If you’d prefer a guide just for the two of you, there’s also a private canyoning trip for couples in Bovec.

Best for / Skip it if

Best for families with kids who swim well, and first-timers who want an easy start to canyoning in the Soča Valley. Skip it if you have back or heart problems, are pregnant or need wheelchair access.

Rated 4.9 out of 5 (89 reviews)

Great family experience

Great event for the whole family. We participated in the canyoning with our children (7 and 9) and everyone got their money’s worth.

Great family experience

It was a great experience for the whole family! My sons (9 and 14) didn’t want to stop at all. David and Zsombie guided us well and gave us tips for canyoning, so we felt safe and comfortable in the group. Would love to do it again!

What have we got a...

We had a great time in the house. The guides Jani and David were very knowledgeable and helpful and they knew how to bring the atmosphere right in. The canyoning trip was a lot of fun and varied with climbing, sliding, jumping, abseiling and not only the children thought it was spectacular. It is really recommended for young and old.
