Without any doubt, river Cetina is one of the nicest places in Croatia where you can experience the magic of a rafting adventure. It is situated in a luscious region surrounded by quaint little villages. There are lots of stories surrounding the naming of this river.
Ketrin tours is providing you unique adventure in Dalmatia, something to remember during your whole lifetime.
This excursion starts with trip to the starting place for rafting and it takes approximately 25 minutes. That journey is very interesting and allows guests to see the beauty of the nature surrounding the river. The name of the place where we begin our rafting adventure is Pavića Most (named after an old Roman bridge that is still in use today). In that moment each tourist is given oars, life jacket and helmet. In cooler or wet weather tourists will also be provided with wetsuits. Skippers will direct tourists to their raft. Each is lead by an experienced rafting skipper. Maximum for one boat is 8 tourists. Each skipper along with the crew takes the raft and the equipment and goes down to the river. We begin trip on a very calm spot on the river.
The first 9 kilometres of the river is a part where the river is very calm. During this initial section of the river, the crew is practicing correct rowing and following directions that will later be required. The scenery in this section of the river is gorgeous and the water is crystal clear and clean. The river is full of fish, ducks and occasionally you will see turtles.
The next section of the river is very technically demanding, so the crew must follow all instructions carefully. This section of the river is called the "Labyrinth". Then you'll come to a small lake-like expanse of water where we take a break for about 10 minutes, so rafters can go swimming and refresh in the clear blue-green river.
Then you'll come to a small waterfall that is definitely something that has to be seen! You can pass under one of the waterfalls for some fun. The light and reflections on the leaves is beautiful. The next rapid is very interesting one, called "Z". It's very important to listen to all the skipper's instruction at this point, otherwise you could fall out of the boat! "Z" is a place where your adrenaline is at its highest level.
The next part of the river is called "Tisne stine" as the river is fairly deep at this point tourists can jump into the river from rocks that are 2 and 4 meters above the river.
The rafting adventure finishes at the picnic place called Radmanove Mlinice.
