Family canyoning in Bled starts with a short drive out of town. This trip goes to Jerečica Canyon in the Bohinj Valley, a less-visited gorge away from the main crowds. It’s made for parents and kids doing it together, and children can join from 120 cm tall. So if your kids are too small for other canyoning tours you’ve looked at, this one is worth a look.
Groups are capped at 7 guests per guide, so the pace follows your family, not the other way around. Guides are trained at the operator’s own canyoning school and hold white water rescue certification, which matters in a narrow canyon with kids. The guide also takes photos of the key moments, and you get the full-size files by WeTransfer after the tour. GoPro video is available as an add-on.
Families with kids as young as 7 and 8 say the younger ones could handle the whole route, and liked the mix of short hikes, swimming, sliding and climbing. Past travelers also mention patient, experienced guides who helped everyone through the harder parts.

It is a very nice family tour! Our youngest is 8 an she could do everything! It was very exciting – swimming, climbing, sliding! Clara was a nice tour guide
Matteus was an absolutely wonderful guide and pleasure of a person. He was patient, informative and fun! Our kids range from 7 to 19 and all 5 of them had an outstanding time. We’re so happy we chose this tour because it had a range of activities: hiking, sliding, jumping & scaling.
Yes. Every jump is optional, and the guide always shows another route for anyone who doesn’t want to jump. With a maximum of 7 guests per guide, nobody gets pushed to go faster than they want.
All canyoning gear is provided. Bring a swimsuit to wear under the wetsuit, a towel and dry clothes to change into after the canyon. Food and drinks aren’t included, so pack water and a snack for the kids.
That tour goes through two canyons, with jumps up to 10 m and a float on the Sava Bohinjka. This one stays in Jerečica Canyon, keeps every jump optional and accepts kids from 120 cm.
Early. On average, this tour is booked about 53 days in advance, and groups are small, so summer dates fill up fast.
You can cancel for free up to 24 hours before the tour starts (local time).
