Mountain River in Krakow? Yeah! [Video]
We Do Rafting on Olympic Mountain Canoeing Track in Krakow
Less than 30 minutes away from the Main Market Square in Old Town Krakow there’s a canoeing track. It’s truly professional as many times a year it holds international rafting and canoeing world cups. The waterflow 15m3/sec is greater than many mountain rivers you probably have ever seen and it is level ww3/ww3+.
How Does It Compare To Mountain Rivers?
The international white water level scale (ww1-ww6) places the track you can enjoy rafting with us on ww3/ww3+. It’s hard to describe it, it’s easy to visualize it:
- ww1 / easy – the river is very slow with almost zero water flow. You can maneuver with great easy; no no tides, no obstacles, no cascades.
- ww2 / moderately difficult – the river gets sudden drops, obstacles and cascades in moderate amount. Maneuvering is easy.
Example:
- ww3 / difficult (our track) – the river is quick, tides may be high and irregular, obstacles/stones frequent, possible whirlpools. Maneuvering still possible from raft or kayak level.
Example: - ww4 / very difficult – Maneuvering still possible but often requires stops to plan the kayaking route. Also great alert and top kayaking skills required to maneuver safely.
Example: - ww5 / extremely difficult
Example: - ww6 / hardly possible to kayaking
Example:
Most Demanding Not Only For Newbies, But Still Safe
The track being in ww3/ww3+ level is very demanding but due to the fact it is artificial the banks are very close even if you fall into water, plus you wear a life vest and wetsuit which increases your buoyancy.
Before the activity starts our instructors – some of them took part in the Olympic Games – will tell you everything how to raft in a safe and enjoyable way.
