Over the course of 7 days of the festival, nature and white water enthusiasts will be able to enjoy in the kayak competition, kayak training, music program, Eco Run and the beauty of rivers and other natural gems of Montenegro. The aim of this festival is to promote white water kayaking, but also the natural beauty of Montenegro.

The unique geographical position of Montenegro makes it a home of many pristine canyons and wild rivers. Our rivers are among the most beautiful ones in Europe because of their purity and incredible mixture of turquoise with emerald color in the deeper sources. The impressive landscapes, magnificent canyons, crystal clear water with wild rapids and whirlpools will make paddling a memorable experience for every kayaker. Montenegro has over 15 sections for paddling in classes 1-5, which makes it a unique paradise for kayakers worldwide.
Since we are all human we must add the beside the nature, you will enjoy the authentic Montenegrin humor, disscusions with the locals, great memories from around the camp fire and an occasional Montenegrin wisdom.
