Rafting adventure on the Drava River on Hlodovec raft

Working hours

  • Operating Season: April – October
Embark on a journey through the history of rafting and navigate the Drava River just like the old-time raftsmen did on the Hlodovec raft. But a raftsman's "voyage" was never easy, so you'll have to lend a hand too! You'll need to prepare a raftsman's meal, brew raftsman's coffee over a campfire, and row with a real raftsman's oar. Are you ready?

Step into the shoes of a raftsman and experience a thrilling ride down the Drava River!

Experience Maribor from a different perspective and immerse yourself in the embrace of the Drava River. Let the healing power of water and the beautiful nature brighten your day!

Embark on a journey on a small wooden raft called "hlodovec" to Maribor's Lent, once an ancient port for rafts and barges and a center for the timber trade. Enjoy a delightful glass of wine and excellent company.
