It was definitely an experience. We did it with my parents and my 8 year old sister. She got tired of paddling pretty soon. Wouldn't take small children and expect them to paddle the whole way. There were some nice places to stop for beer and refreshments. The weirs were frightening. On the first one, my dad and I capsized and I didn't have the guts to go down the second one. Everybody really enjoyed it and slept well after the journey.

Being international travellers, getting to a remote part of Slovakia is not easy but Active Travel Slovakia picked us up from our hotel and enabled us to visit the Bojnice Castle as well as other key points of interest in the region. During the trip, we were also able to find out much about Slovakian history and culture as our guide was very knowledgeable on this.

There is an old Romanesque and Gothic church located on a hill. 4 km from Kremnica. In its garden lies hidden the geographical centre of Europe.
