How to reach us and pick-up service

At the starting point for rafting on the river Tara, in the heart of the canyon, miles away from modern civilization and at the beginning of the most exciting rafting section there is place called Brstanovica and Camp Encijan on it, one of the most beautiful campsites by the Tara River and only Camp at the Bosnian bank of the river. Encijan rafting camp is located in the lower part of the Tara River Canyon, on Bosnian – right bank.  Fifteen kilometers downstream, there is a border crossing Šćepan Polje (Hum), from where starts the access road, by which is possible to reach our camp.

The aforementioned road extends along the Montenegrin side of the Canyon and ends in Brstanovica. It is covered with asphalt. Other route goes from town of Foca to Brstanovica or Camp Encijan, in total length of 52 km.
