Colorado River Whitewater Rafting

This legendary river starts on the western edge of the continental divide and is fed by melting snow. The Colorado runs from its source in the Rocky Mountains all the way south through the Grand Canyon, and eventually into the Gulf of California. The Upper Colorado River, which is the part closest to us, is great for rafting and offers classic Colorado scenery, the chance to spot wildlife, steep canyons, and views of the Rocky Mountains. This river provides the quintessential Colorado rafting experience for you and your group. We offer two great raft trips on the Colorado River: a beginner scenic float trip down Pumphouse Canyon, and an expert Class V trip down Gore Canyon.

The beginner Pumphouse Canyon trip offers incredible views, easy whitewater appropriate for kids as young as 4, our delicious ultimate fajita feast hot lunch, and if water levels are right, a chance to check out the popular Radium Hot Springs located right along the bank of the river. This trip is perfect for families with small kids who are looking to ease into rafting.

Our expert Gore Canyon trip on the Colorado River offers steep drops, must make maneuvers, and continuous class V whitewater. It is only appropriate for our guests who have been rafting before, are very strong swimmers (guests will be required to pass a swim test prior to running Gore Canyon), and are looking for rafting in its most extreme form.
