Rafting
on Tara River
. . . it
is planned to start somewhat like this:
The start is from Ljubljana about 10 PM. Overnight
drive will take us through Croatia and in the morning we cross
into Bosnia and Herzegovina. We stop for a short visit to
the town of Mostar and a lunch break. After
lunch we continue on to Montenegro and we will reach the highest
located town in the Balkans, Žabljak in the
early evening. After checking in at our hotel, we will head
out for diner and then some rest. Early morning breakfast
will give us enough time to visit the Black Lake at Žabljak,
and then we head for the famous bridge on Đjurdević
Tara.
. . . the main event
- the rafting in the canyon of River Tara . . .
Close to the Đjurdevic Tara at about 1 PM we
will be on the water. Our rafting adventure will be well on
the way. After some 40 kilometers we will be deep
in the canyon and about 6 PM we should reach the
rafting and kayaking harbor of sorts at the Radovan Luka (translated
as Radovans Harbor). The time of arrival
is of course closely related to the water levels in the canyon.
We will settle in for the night at the local motel. That will
be followed by a feast of diner including lots of roast lamb
on the spit, local red wine (delicious), some toasts will
be made with the local spirit called "loza" and
this stuff is rather potent liquid. And along all this it
is anticipated to have lots of fun till the very late or rather
early hours . . .
After breakfast back on to the water down to
the Siga Bajlović Falls. A short stop will
be used to pay a visit to the local caves
to see the wanders made by water, calcium and time. The down
river trip continues on towards the point called Brstanovica.
There will be a short rest, and then comes the best
part of nearly 100 kilometers of this
rafting exclusive. The adventure on Tara River will end
at
the Scepan Polje (Torn Field), where three rivers merge into
one. Here rivers Tara and Piva flow into River Drina.
. . . and here
we wrap up the rafting part of this trip . . .
After we had satisfied our hunger (one does
get rather ravenous after the day on the water . . .) with
a well deserved diner at the Scepan Polje, we drive on to
the town of Sarajevo the capital city of Bosnia and Herzegovina
and take refuge in the local pension for a well deserved
rest.
After breakfast
we commence
our return journey to Ljubljana via the city of Sarajevo.
We will stop for
a short while and take a walk through the Bas Ćaršija ( Baazar
dating back to the period of Turkish dominance of the area).
If there are any other points of interests, you would like
to see we can do that and also taste some of the local
food
in one of the many stalls and vending places. About 1 PM
we will head back to Slovenia. We will have a late lunch,
and
then continue on our return drive and we should reach Ljubljana
at a rather late hour of 11PM.
