Program description:
At set time we will meet in Kočevje and drive to the starting point of the trip in Slovenska vas, where you will board your SUP. Accompanied by a local guide, you will get to see the dams on the river, the former mills and the forest from the water surface, and you will also learn many interesting facts about the aquatic and forest animals in the river and its surroundings.
At Mahovnik along the Little Bear Trail, forest animals often come to quench their thirst, so there will be an opportunity to discover their tracks and guess which animal was the last to drink water from Rinža. Then it will be time for a snack break of local delicacies on the SUP.
