Half Day – Royal Gorge Rafting Trips
Do something epic!
Arkansas River
Half-Day
Intermediate / Advanced
Royal Gorge rafting is one of Colorado's top whitewater experiences! This is our best trip for those who are looking for adventure, big scenery, and world-class whitewater. Royal Gorge white water rafting starts out mellow to give you and your crew time to get dialed in with your paddling technique and then you will navigate through class III to class IV and even class V whitewater at higher water levels. Prepare to get wet, hit some big waves, see some amazing scenery and experience some of the best rafting in Colorado. Pair this trip with your favorite Colorado Springs adventures! Spend your morning in the Royal Gorge before embarking on a scenic hike through the Garden of the Gods.
You will encounter some major rapids like Sunshine, Sledgehammer, the Narrows and Wallslammer to name a few. One of our favorite spots on this Colorado whitewater rafting section is the Narrows where the river is only 50 ft wide and the gorge walls are over 1,000' tall while you raft right under the Royal Gorge Bridge! It doesn't get much better than this!
You do not need prior experience to go on this trip but you do need to be in good physical shape to help safely paddle the boat, ability to swim well, and up for some fun adventure. This trip is just under 10 miles in length and takes about 2 to 2.5 hours on the water. The minimum age for this trip is 14 to 15 depending on water conditions. From $99, this trip is one of the best values on the Arkansas River!
