You can go rafting in Colorado with us on the most popular rivers in the central part of the state. Our convenient locations along I-70 allow you to pick the best trip for your group, whether it’s for a half-day, full-day or even just a short whitewater rafting adventure in Colorado.

As one of the early outfitters to take guests paddling on Clear Creek, we have a special affection for this waterway’s narrow, technical nature. The Creek shoots out of the Colorado mountains high atop the Continental Divide and rushes toward Denver at a steady clip. It’s rafting in Colorado as you’d expect it — exhilarating and stunning at the same time.

Next up is the mighty Colorado River, source of life and fun for thousands of miles around. Near the headwaters, or “source,” of the Colorado River is a quiet, beautiful place called Little Gore Canyon.
