I know Una only from Martin brod to Bihac. Some information was in "Kanumagazin" - see www.kanumagazin.de. From Martin Brod to Strbacki Bug (waterfall) mainly flatwater, waterfall portage on the right river - attention for vipers - then 4-5 kms of WW III-V (according to water level)and then flatwater with some drops (but drops till WW IV!!! and a little bit dangerous). On this section was (three years ago) marks - "minen" on the left bank. From Bihac is OK, I think, but don´t know. In Bihac area some rafting companies and you can ask them.
Best regards

Hi Vojta,
thanks for your tips!
Concerning Una: Which is the normal stretch to go? I found descriptions from the Donja Savanja over Martin brod to Rapac. Does anybody know what's after this stretch and after Bihac?
You said mines are only a problem on the left bank. To which section of the Una do you refer? The mine situation stream-down Bihac seams to be quite worse (according to http://mine.ba/index.aspx?PID=...

Just have to convince my friend to do the Una .

Many thanks so far!
Byebye, Sebi

Hi Sebi,
in CZ now during summer is dry rivers and max. ZW trips with open canoe. In beautiful East you have some possbilities in Bulgaria (Struma river)-but it is about 2000 kms from München, Macedonia (Crna reka), Una in Bosnia is nice and only leftbank is dangerous of mines, the other nice rive there is Neretva, but some dams. The same is Vrbas in Bosnia. Maybe Bistrita in Romanie, but far a little bit too. Best time is spring for Eas paddling...
Best regards
Vojta

Hey paddlers!
Since I've been paddling only few times in Czech Rep up to now, I want to try little more of the beautiful east.
Do you have any ideas for a whitewater trip on level II-III lasting 3-5.. days, that means having sleeping bag and stuff in the kayak and just going down a river for 70-150km...

It shouldn't be too far away, let's say max. 1000km from Munich.

Up to now I found the Una in Bosnia/Crotia. That sounds quite cool except the mines. Do anyone of you have experience with the mine situation there?

Have nice paddling these days,
Greets, Sebi (Regensburg)

P. S.: My Czech is quite bad (rather non-existing) so I hope I'm in the right section (Vodacke akce = water action (stupid translator) = whitewater??)
