Why take this tour?

This trip combines the best of the Bighorn Sheep Canyon & the Royal Gorge. Run 10 miles of Class II,III,IV rapids (2,3,4), then relax and refuel with a delicious lunch prepared by your guides and kayakers on our private riverside beach. Our lunches are as much of a highlight as the whitewater!
After lunch, we drop into the heart of the Royal Gorge, running 10 miles of mostly continuous Class III/IV/V (3,4,5) whitewater rapids in one of the world's most beautiful and awe inspiring locations. This is an advanced trip; the minimum age is 13 years and 16+ in high water.

Get ready for all-out high adrenaline Royal Gorge river rafting. If you are looking for world class rafting, you found it! Rafting below the spectacular vista of the Royal Gorge Bridge is an experience in itself. This Canon City rafting trip is known for the famous rapids of Sunshine Falls, Sledgehammer, The Narrows, and many more. You'll cut through "The Royal Gorge Arch" a thousand feet below the rim of the Gorge. Epic!

If you are an experienced rafter or a first timer looking for a more challenging, exciting and demanding stretch of whitewater, we recommend you book the Royal Gorge raft trip.
