From the Montenegrin coast, Podgorica and Durmitor

From Budva, Kotor, Tivat, Herceg Novi and Podgorica the road runs via Nikšić and Plužine, then through the Piva Canyon to the Šćepan Polje border crossing. The camp is just past the border. From Bar and Ulcinj you go via Podgorica. Žabljak is the closest, about 1.5 hours away.

The Piva Canyon road is one of the most scenic drives in the Balkans, but it is narrow, with many unlit tunnels cut into the rock. Drive slowly with your lights on, especially in a van or with a trailer.

From Dubrovnik

From Dubrovnik (city, airport or cruise port) the route goes via Trebinje, about 4 hours. Croatia is in the Schengen area, so allow time for the exit check at the border.

From Sarajevo and Bosnia

From Sarajevo and Sarajevo Airport the camp is 2-2.5 hours away via Foča. Sarajevo has direct flights from many European cities, which makes it the closest international airport to the camp.

From Serbia

From Belgrade take the Miloš Veliki motorway to Požega, then continue via Užice and Višegrad (Kotroman - Vardište border crossing) to Foča. That is about 340 km and 5 hours to Foča, plus another half hour to the camp.

Questions about getting here

Where is Rafting Camp Eden?

The camp is at Hum near Šćepan Polje, Foča municipality, Republika Srpska, Bosnia and Herzegovina (GPS 43.3507, 18.8317). It sits at the confluence of the Tara and Piva rivers, where the Drina begins, right next to the Šćepan Polje border crossing with Montenegro and about 23 km from Foča.

Is the Tara rafting camp in Montenegro or Bosnia?

The camp is in Bosnia and Herzegovina, a few minutes from the Montenegrin border. The rafting section of the Tara ends at Šćepan Polje, where the river forms the border between the two countries, so from the Montenegrin coast and Durmitor the camp is easy to reach.

What documents do I need?

The camp is in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Bring a valid passport, or an ID card if your citizenship allows it, and check the current entry rules for Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro (and Croatia if you come from Dubrovnik). If you drive, bring your registration and licence and ask your insurer whether you need a green card.

Yes. We organise transfers from Budva, Kotor, Tivat, Herceg Novi, Bar, Ulcinj, Podgorica, Nikšić, Žabljak, Dubrovnik and Sarajevo, for one traveller or a large group.
