Echo Canyon River Expeditions calls Cañon City and the Royal Gorge Region home—with over 250 days of bluebird skies each year. Sharing colorful Colorado with our visitors is a team effort—so we’re hiring for a range of positions at Echo Canyon, 8 Mile Bar & Grill and Royal Gorge Cabins.
This is rafting, after all. We're serious about safety—but not much else. Having fun is kind of mandatory here.
No two days at Echo Canyon are alike, and that's part of the joy. We think on our feet and lend a helping hand.
Whatever it takes. We're in the business of creating unforgettable memories—so consider yourself Chief Experience Officer.
We’re in the business of making memories. If sharing your love of Colorado for a living sounds too good to be true—you may have just found your dream job.
Currently accepting applications for the 2027 summer rafting season! Experienced Guides and Aspiring Guides are welcome to apply.Â
Training begins on May 17th, 2027, and lasts about one month. Full-time seasonal positions will be offered to many of those who successfully complete the training program. Experienced Guides still need to complete an application and get a hold of our River Operations Manager to set up a time for an interview.
Our staff becomes a tight-knit group of friends, not just co-workers
So you don't have to commit to a career, just a few months of fun and sun
Go rafting on your day off and get discounts for friends and family
There's nothing better than being part of the highlight of a family's vacation
