Coined the ‘jewel of Europe', this wild, turquoise blue river is a raging mass of water fed by the towering mountains of Durmitor National Park in Montenegro. The Tara River traverses along the border of Bosnia and Montenegro, with 30km of it in Bosnia and the rest belonging to the other side.
It flows 140km until meeting with the Piva River and forming the River Drina, one of the longest and largest rivers in the Balkans.
Age-old earth erosion has created the 82km-long canyon, the second largest canyon in the world after Colorado. Aside from nature lovers and fishermen, the river attracts a large number of adrenaline junkies. Rated at level 3-5, it offers some of the most intense and challenging rafting in Europe. There are, of course, rafting outfits that provide sturdy and safe rubber rafts with all the necessary gear.
