Dobra river
Is a dam
controlled, safe river with some wild grade IV and V rapids and big
waves. The usual flow is 50 cubic meters (1750 cubic feet) per
second.
The river
gradually slows down and changes into easier rapids and calm
sections. These are great to relax, swim and enjoy the scenery of
forest covered canyon and trees that go all the way to the water. A
great one-day trip ends after 17 kilometres at a special take out:
by hot springs and a warm pool.
Una
River
The section of
Una from 20-meter Strbacki Buk waterfall is great for rafting, grade
III-IV at low and grade V at high water level. The left bank is
Croatian, right bank Bosnian, but they are equally beautiful.
The easy rapids
of Kupa and Mreznica provide moderate but beautiful floating trips
with more white water excitement during high water periods.
