| Bridge on River Tara |
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 rises from the mountain ranges in the northern part of
Montenegro and flows 140km until meeting with the Piva River and
forming the River Drina, one
of the longest and largest rivers in the Balkans.
For
eons the powerful flow of the Tara River has hollowed out a soft limestone
surface, creating the sculpted form of gorges and chasms that we see today.
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. A ride on one of the ‘real' rafts, logs tied together and
guided by a massive wooden rudder, is quite an experience. There are, of
course, rafting outfits that provide sturdy and safe rubber rafts with all the
necessary gear. Most groups operate out of Foca (there are also several rafting
agencies in Montenegro) and offer breakfast, lunch and overnight camping in
their rafting packages.

Označena kao "dragulj Evrope" ova divlja
tirkizno-plava rijeka se napaja masivnim vodama koje dolaze sa visokih planina
smještenih u Durmitorskom nacionalnom parku u Crnog Gori. Rijeka Tara teče
između granice Bosne i Crne Gore, od čega je 30 km njenog toka u Bosni, a
ostatak je u Crnoj Gori.
Izvire u planinskom lancu smještenom na sjeveru Crne Gore i teče 140 km dok se ne
susretne sa rijekom Pivom, nakon čega nastaje jedna od najdužih i najvećih
rijeka na Balkanu, rijeka Drina.
Već
vječnost snažni tok rijeke Tare usijeca meku vapnenačku površinu stvarajući
grotla i ponore koje danas možemo vidjeti. Vjekovna erozija stvorila je kanjon dugačak 82 km, što
je drugi kanjon po dužini u svijetu - odmah iza kanjona Kolorad
Osim ljubitelja prirode i ribolovaca ovaj kanjon privlači i
adrenalinske ovisnike. Rangiran kao nivo 3-5, ovdje se nudi jedan od najintenzivnijih i
najzahtjevnijih raftinga u Evropi. Vožnja na pravim splavovima, načinjenim od međusobno
uvezanih debala i masivnimdrvenim kormilom predstavlja zaista jedinstveno
iskustvo. Naravno, tu je i rafting u čvrstim i sigurnim rafting čamcima sa svom
neophodnom opremom. Većina organizovanih grupa polazi iz Foče a u ponudu je
pored splavarenja uključen doručak, ručak i prenoćište.
