Rafting on the Tara RIver is indeed a complete and unforgettable experience. But in order to take full advantage of all of that, and that such experience remains in nice memory, and that one such adventure stays safe and secure, we need proper rafting equipment.
Encijan Agency has the most advanced and high-quality raft equipment, in a capacity for 150 persons, which was produced by European standards and certified with CE certificates, and using such equipment in the realization rafting trips, safety and security is our top priority.
Our sister company „Sherpas ", deals with the production and distribution of equipment for all types of extreme sports under its own brand, including equipment for rafting. High quality „Sherpa ’s " rafting equipment is used not only by our agency , but also other agencies in the same business , not only on Tara River, but also throughout the country and in the region of the other rivers . So for quality and proper equipment there is no need to worry...
We guarantee that you will prior every rafting trip get the appropriate rafting equipment, which suits your needs, from appropriate size and model, and proper equipment suitable to the given weather conditions. All abovementioned means a lot in our business.
All of you who already had some rafting experience, and if you experienced troubles concerning equipment, will surely understand what we mean ... when in May or June, your rafting agency sets you to the cold river in short wet suits and when you get cold and frozen, or when during delivery of rafting equipment you’re lucky if you can get any life vest or neoprene suit or neoprene boots no matter if one is size 42 and the other 45 :-)
Such scenario in our agency is impossible. Safety, security and your comfort are always our top priority. And just as we like ironically to say “there is no bad weather for rafting but only bad equipment” :-)
In order to better understand the importance and the need for adequate equipment when participating in the rafting trip, here are few facts about Tara River water temperature. The water temperature during the summer season is a maximum of 10-12 ° C , but during first few months of the season in April, May or early June when the rafting is most exciting , the water temperature is only 7-8 ° C.
During this period snow starts to melt from Durmitor Mt. and the surrounding mountains, and it is quite fresh in the Canyon.
Without high quality protective neoprene suits and raft boots, which have a role to protect and get you warm, the rafting experience would not be complete, and when we add the protective helmets and quality life vest, which have a role in the event of any incident, to protect you and keep you at the water surface, then you are ready go down the Tara River and fearlessly descend down its rapids.
