White water rafting in Bled means a guided trip down the Sava River, just a few minutes from the lake. The rapids are fun but not extreme, so it suits families, groups of friends and first-timers who want a few active hours outdoors.
You meet at the Funturist stand at Camping Šobec in Lesce. From the Funturist office, a short transfer of about 10 minutes takes you to the river, where you get your equipment.
About two hours of the trip are spent on the water. The rapids are mostly Class II: a few splashy, bumpy sections with calm stretches in between, where you can slow down and enjoy the scenery. Your guide steers the raft and tells you when to paddle.
A professional guide and all rafting equipment are included. Check the available dates to plan your time on the Sava River near Bled.

Super well organised Nice guides Fun experience They take pictures of you as well It’s not too short and too long
This was a really well organised trip with the emphasis on having fun. We shared a raft with one other family, and our instructor made it the best experience. We loved paddling down the rapids – not too fast, but fun, especially when we went down backwards. We played a couple of games, and had a few opportunities to swim. We enjoyed body surfing along one bit where we got out the boat and drifted feet first down the river under a bridge. The sun shone and the scenery was beautiful. It was certainly one of the highlights of our holiday, and really good value for money.
Not very. Past travelers describe them as Class II: some splashes and bumps, with plenty of calm water in between. If you want bigger whitewater, rafting on the Soča River in Bovec is usually the stronger option.
Yes. No experience is needed, and travelers say it feels safe even for first-timers. Keep in mind:
Expect to get wet. Past travelers mention chances to get out of the raft and swim in calm sections, depending on the guide and the conditions on the day.
