Whitewater Rafting

Commercial rafting companies guide visitors on the country’s premier whitewater on the Colorado and Roaring Fork Rivers. There are plenty of rapids as well as calmer waterways for families with children.

Kayaking

Colorful boats can be seen throughout town from May - October. With two rivers, a world-class whitewater park and several boat launches, kayakers access everything from smooth water to Class III and IV rapids.

Inflatable River Toys

Pick from duckies (sit-on-top inflatable kayaks), which are safe, fun, and suitable for anyone; single and double kayaks; or bellyacks (the latest rendition of the inflatable kayak).

Stand-Up Paddleboards

Surfing and river running combined into a whole new sport—stand-up paddling. For adventurous and proficient swimmers—stand up, propel and steer down the mighty Colorado River.

Canoes

Row your boat on Ruedi Reservoir above Basalt, Harvey Gap near Rifle, lakes scattered across the Flat Tops and sections of the Colorado River that are wide and calm.

Tubing

Experience a leisurely float and take in the beauty of your surroundings on the Colorado and Roaring Fork Rivers.
