Colorado Whitewater Rafting Trips

From the high peaks of the Rocky Mountains to the red sandstone canyons of the Colorado Plateau, Colorado is a whitewater rafting Mecca. Colorado whitewater rafting trips on the Arkansas and Dolores rivers range from half-day excursions to 6-day expeditions. Colorado rafting adventures are generally within a few hours drive from Denver.

Arkansas River Rafting Trips (Class III-V):
The Arkansas River provides technical, Class III-V whitewater rafting typical of the mountain peaks from which it drains.
Dolores River Rafting Trips (Class III-IV):
The Dolores River drains from the southwestern mountains of Colorado and finds its way through the canyons of the Colorado Plateau until it joins the Mighty Colorado River in Utah.
