Yes.

You can park your car directly with us. We provide free parking only for clients, exclusively for the duration of the rafting and the return time after the rafting. The average duration of the rafting and the return time is 3-4 hours in total. If this time is exceeded, a parking fee is charged based on the occupancy of our parking lot and the instructions of the operator. After returning, it is necessary to park your vehicles. Parking address: RAFTING DUNAJEC, \u010cerven\u00fd Kl\u00e1\u0161tor 30.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

There are several factors that influence a length of raft sailing. These include, in particular, the river level and behaviour of passengers in the boat. However, the rafting trip usually takes an hour and a half (10 km trip from\u00a0\u010cerven\u00fd Kl\u00e1\u0161tor<\/em>\u00a0to\u00a0Lesnica<\/em>).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

While doing rafting your feet get wet. It all depends on the weather. When it is sunny, we will recommend you to wear a short sleeve T-shirt, shorts and sandals, crocs, slides or flip flops. Of course, when it is really hot you can also wear a swimsuit. In case, the weather changes you can take with you a\u00a0sweater or jacket. To ensure all your clothes and belongings stay dry, you will get a\u00a0waterproof bag or plastic barrel before the start. This equipment is included in the price. When the weather is rainy and windy, please take with you a\u00a0raincoat or waterproof jacket and suitable footwear. As already mentioned above, you can take your mobile phone, camera, wallet or other personal articles with you. You will put all these objects in the plastic barrel or waterproof bag, so that there is no way to get your belongings wet.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

6. Will our clotheas and shoes stay dry? Is there too much water in the boat? <\/div><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/rect><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n\t\t\t\t

The boat will be completely under water. JUST KIDDING! Of course, it will NOT! You will not get wet, only in a situation of higher river level when the waves are larger than normal. In summary, do not worry. There is usually very small amount of water at the bottom of the boat. For that reason, it is really recommended to wear suitable shoes (check question No. 5).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

7. What is the best way to get back from the port? <\/div><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/rect><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n\t\t\t\t

It should be noted that the rafting company in the Pieniny National Park provides ONLY the RAFTING SERVICES, i.e. sailing the river. You have to choose a mode of transport to get back to \u010cerven\u00fd Kl\u00e1\u0161tor. This is your responsibility not ours.\u00a0 There are several options:<\/p>

\u2013 You can go on foot, it takes approximately 2 hours. This is a nice 10 kilometers walk along the river, the path is mostly flat with 2 small elevations. Not a big deal even for families with kids.<\/p>

\u2013 You can borrow bikes and use the same track as pedestrians (it is a bike-pedestrian path), this is the tourists\u2019 most favorite option. Bicycles for adults and kids are available as well as carriages for the littlest ones.<\/p>

\u2013 You can go by bus that operates between the port Lesnica\u00a0 and the start point \u010cerven\u00fd Kl\u00e1\u0161tor and leaves about every 60 minutes or you can go by microbus which leaves when it is full.<\/p>

Please note that the bus parking lot and bicycle rental companies are about 800 metres distant from the port (they are located next to the restaurant called Chata Pieniny, Lesnica 147). You have to go on foot to get there.<\/strong><\/p>

And what are the prices?<\/p>

\u2013 your feet are for free J so this is the most economically advantageous option,<\/p>

\u2013 bike rental (for about 2 hours) costs 8\u20ac per person (carriage rental costs 3 euro),<\/p>

\u2013 travelling by microbus costs 5 euro per person, Prices may vary. The price listed is only valid for routes of 10km and 17km. For routes of 25km, the taxi price is \u20ac8\/person.*<\/p>

\u2013 travelling by bus costs 3\u20ac\/adult and 2\u20ac\/children. The bus only runs during the months of July and August.<\/p>

*The above mentioned prices are approximate and they may vary according to provider.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

8. Do I have to have experience? How physically demanding is the sailing? <\/div><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/rect><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n\t\t\t\t

No, you do not need any prior experience. The river is neither demanding nor dangerous to sail, so that the rafting trip is suitable for non-swimmers or kids, as well. All passengers wear life jackets and helmets. Last but not least, our instructor keeps an eye on you during the whole trip and he always explains you everything more or less important.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

9. Do I need to know how to swim? Is rafting with children safe? <\/div><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/rect><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

As already mentioned above (check question No. 8), the rafting trip on the\u00a0Dunajec<\/em>\u00a0river is safe for everybody. The river is mostly calm so that the boat stays stable on its surface. Finally, the instructor\u2019s main task is providing a uniform and high level of protection of all passengers in all circumstances.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

This is not a good idea for security reasons. There are often a lot of wooden and plastic rafts sailing the river especially during July and August and so you can easily be injured. Of course, there is always the chance you will make a deal with the instructor who considers the current situation and conditions of a particular stretch. In any case, it is necessary to mention that you take full responsibility of your health after leaving the boat during the trip.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t
