The Dunajec River Paddle Tours

The Dunajec River flows through a beautiful canyon called the Dunajec Gorge (Prielom Dunajca) in the Pieniny National Park. For 18 kilometers, the river forms the border between Slovakia and Poland.

If the water level is not too high, rafts for up to six people are suitable even for those who have never been in a boat or rafted before, as they can be accompanied by an instructor or guide.

It is also possible to hire a two-person inflatable canoe, which is very safe, but previous rafting experience is required.

At the end of the route, there are restaurants where you can try traditional Goral cuisine and listen to folk music. Afterwards, you can either walk through the National Park along the river, take a mountain bike on the riverside path, or simply catch a bus.

Wood-rafting is also very popular. Tourists can choose from the offers of many wood-rafting companies in the area.
