The waters we fish in

Although Slovenia is a small country, it is extremely rich with rivers. And one of the most beautiful locations is definitely the Soča valley. Soča with its tributaries is our favorite location because we are located here and here is also our home. By agreement, we can also organize trips to other rivers, especially for those guests who come to us for a longer period of time and would like to get to know other rivers and places as well.
