The adventure begins with entering the canyon of the Piva River. After breakfast, we depart in our vehicles towards the Piva Nature Park. The Piva River springs from the Sinjac source in Golija.
The Durmitor Ring is one of the most impressive panoramic routes in the region. It showcases the unique and untouched landscapes of northern Montenegro, with the fascinating nature of Durmitor National Park and the Piva Nature Park.
The adventure begins with entering the canyon of the Piva River. After breakfast, we depart in our vehicles to Piva Nature Park. The Piva River springs from the source of Sinjac in Golija.
As it flows, the river passes through towering mountains, creating a spectacular canyon up to 1300m high and about 33km long. The river creates exceptional power used for the construction of the Mratinje hydroelectric power plant.
The construction of the Mratinje hydroelectric power plant took place from 1967 to 1975, and its impressive height of 220m ranks it among the tallest dams in Europe.
The fact that the construction of the dam, access roads, and facilities was the largest investment of the former Yugoslavia speaks to the magnitude of this impressive structure.
With the construction of the dam and the flooding of a part of the Piva River canyon, a town called Plužine was completely submerged.
Arrival in Plužine where the adventure for the bravest begins - zip-line. The longest zip-line in Southeast Europe, 1400 meters long, starting from the tavern "Eko-Piva" in Plužine and going over the famous Piva Lake, and then back with a return cable.
IMPORTANT NOTE - zip-line is not included in the price - 25 euros per person.
We continue the journey to the beautiful village of Trsa which is a crossroads and a place that has been the center of events during the summer season for centuries. The road to Trsa is not passable in winter.
We continue along the mountain range of PRUTAŠ which looks very attractive. Its vertical bars that descend like waterfalls down the southern side of Durmitor keep alive the legend of young Todor and his Ružica, the cruelty of fairies and the shepherd's revenge.
During the ride, we regularly take breaks at viewpoints to enjoy the view and capture them with a photo. Lunch - a snack package in nature.
Return to the RT center through a narrow, mountain road in the canyon of the Tara River.
Tip: Due to crossing the border with Montenegro, a personal ID card or passport is required. We recommend renting a GoPro camera from us or bringing your own, wear pants and comfortable shoes (sneakers or similar).

For those who want faster, more exciting rafting, we recommend choosing the months of April, May, and early June.
For those who want a calmer rafting experience or come with children, choose July, August, and September.
For those who want to visit us with children, we recommend choosing so-called working days, from Sunday to Friday. Prices on working days are more favorable and there are fewer crowds.
Prices are most favorable at the beginning of the season, on working days, as well as for early reservations. If you know the date of your annual vacation in advance, reserve your spot in advance at a more favorable price.
On weekends, i.e. Fridays and Saturdays, we organize live music, and from May 14, 2023, we will have live music 5 evenings a week. Music on weekends is until 2am, and on other days until 1am.
It is possible to reschedule or cancel your reservation and we will offer you a new date if you contact us no later than 2 weeks before the planned arrival date.
Rain or bad weather are not valid reasons for cancellation. We have all the necessary equipment for rafting in bad weather, and our bungalows, as well as the restaurant, have heating. If you are not sure, choose summer months such as July and August when rains are rare and short-lived.
Food at the RT rafting center is traditional, homemade, caloric, mostly based on meat. If you are on a special diet, vegetarian, vegan, etc., please let us know when making a reservation... We have a great selection of dishes and we will be happy to accommodate you.
Due to heavy traffic on the road from the RT center to the starting point of rafting and on the river itself, rafting can be organized in two groups - after breakfast and after lunch. If you have a desire to be in, for example, the first group, please let us know when making a reservation, we will be happy to accommodate you.
If you want to go on an excursion in addition to rafting, for example, a visit to the Sutjeska National Park, choose package deals that already include rafting and a specific excursion. Reserve package deals in advance. Of course, you can decide on any excursion on the spot, but in that case, the price is higher. Package deals are reserved in advance and are always more favorable.
If you decide to go on one of our excursions or package deals, we recommend rotating the program, i.e., for better organization of your time, we will organize excursions on the first day (most excursions are full-day and last longer than rafting itself), and leave rafting for the second day.
Please read the description of our accommodation - STANDARD, COMFORT, SUPERIOR.
Comfort accommodation is located in bungalows and rooms. There are no differences between rooms and bungalows, the equipment and price are the same. Some guests prefer bungalows more, some rooms. If you have special wishes or prefer, for example, to be in rooms, please let us know when making a reservation. Depending on the capacity, we will be happy to accommodate you.
The RT center has two pools that are available only to our guests. The use of the pool is included in some packages and not in others. We have made an effort to clearly highlight which packages include pool use. Those who do not have the use of the pool included in the price of the package can buy a bracelet at the reception. The bracelet costs 5€ and is valid for the entire stay.

BECAUSE:
Accommodation
Almost all of our bungalows have their own bathrooms, and the vast majority also have TVs, mini-bars, safes, kitchens... Although, logically, you might think that this is taken for granted, we have to point out that this is a rarity for camping accommodation in nature.
Swimming pool
Although we are located on the banks of the Drina River, we remind you that its temperature, even in August, is only 17 degrees Celsius at the most. That's why you love to seek refreshment from the high temperatures in our swimming pool. And there's also a cocktail bar for true enjoyment.
Our food
The food at RT Center is domestic, authentic food of these areas, traditional, prepared on the spot, on the same day... We bring in groceries several times a week from nearby markets and farms, grown by our farmers. If you are on a special diet, or if you are a vegetarian, vegan, pescetarian... don't worry, some of us are too. We have a great selection of dishes for you, and we know the difference between them. We have special grill plates, fryers, and cold showcases, and the ingredients are not mixed.
Entertainment
The parties at the RT center are already well-known far and wide. We always have guests looking for more. The large number of guests that RT center can accommodate contributes to a great atmosphere and young people meeting each other. And the bands - Kix band and Kosava band, are real masters of creating a great vibe. They quickly get all our guests on their feet, and many of you even on the table.
Additional activities
As part of the RT center, we have a paintball court. And the best part is that you don't have to have a group of people to play. We organize a paintball tournament every day, and all you have to do is sign up at the reception desk to participate. You can even play alone.
Our QUADS are also available
Parked in front of the RT center, our quads are available to you at any time of the day. It is important to note that they are brand new. We purchased some of the four-wheelers in 2021 and some in 2022.
Daily excursions
We organize almost all excursions every day, and you don't have to have a group to go on any of our excursions. You can even go alone. Due to the large capacity of the RT center, we always have enough guests to organize almost all excursions.
Camp hygiene
We take great care of the hygiene and cleanliness of the RT center as well as the bungalows, rooms, and restaurant. We have employees who take care of the cleanliness of the camp 24/7. We also invest a lot of time, effort, and money into the decoration of the RT center. Currently, we have more than 650 rose seedlings planted at the RT center, and every spring we have a campaign to plant seasonal flowers. Our flowerpots are adorned with over 1000 cuttings of geraniums, petunias, surfinias, begonias, tulips, peonies, and more.
Staff
We are proud of all the members and employees at the RT center. They quickly become your favorite waiters, bartenders, and especially skippers. They are warm, honest, cheerful...and quickly win you over and make you happy.
Transportation
We have guaranteed departures every day from Novi Sad and Belgrade, as well as from all major cities in Serbia.
Large camp capacity
It's always full, lively, and dynamic here. We can accommodate 380 rafting enthusiasts, and if you have a company with a large number of employees, you don't have to split them up into several camps. All your employees can stay with us. We have special pricing options for companies, the possibility of payment by invoice, and a rooftop terrace for presentations, a projector, and everything necessary for a successful presentation.
