Packrafting on the Białka River is a 2-day training on a mountain river with a WWII-WWIII difficulty level. Perfect for outdoor and water sports enthusiasts. The Białka River, flowing through the picturesque areas of Podhale, offers unforgettable views and various challenges for packrafting enthusiasts. Thanks to the lightness and versatility of the packraft, you can easily overcome both calmer sections of the river and more rapid currents. Classes on the water are conducted from scratch by the best instructors in Poland, multiple participants of European and World Championships, active competitors in extreme kayaking competitions, and Polish representatives in whitewater kayaking. Under our watchful eye, we will safely introduce you to the world of packrafting. The possibilities offered by sailing on a Packraft means that what a few years ago was available only to experienced people who devoted a lot of time to training on whitewater kayaks, is now available to everyone, regardless of age and physical condition.
