Insider Tips
Rafting is the most popular activity, offering stunning views of the canyon's sheer cliffs and lush forests. The rafting season runs from April to October, with the best time being May and June when the water levels are highest due to melting snow (Class III and IV rapids). In summer, it's beginner friendly with lower water levels and Class II rapids
The Đurđevića Tara Bridge offers one of the best viewpoints over the canyon and surrounding mountains. Most rafting excursions start there and you can also cross the canyon via zip-lines
