Details of Multi-Day Arkansas River Trips
After checking into our Echo Canyon office in Cañon City, we’ll transport you to the start of your multi-day rafting trip in beautiful Chaffee County. While rafting in the Buena Vista area on sections such as The Numbers and Browns Canyon, you’ll be near the base of the majestic Collegiate Peaks, a section of the Sawatch Range of the Rocky Mountains that includes over a half-dozen “fourteeners” (peaks over 14,000 feet tall). In this area, you’ll paddle and camp amongst granite boulders and soaring pine trees.
Explore Browns Canyon on Your Trip
The majority of our Arkansas River rafting trips take you through Browns Canyon, recently-designated a National Monument in 2015. Over a hundred miles of the Arkansas River is recognized as a Gold Medal Steam for fishing, so bring your pole and fishing license along with you and try your luck at landing a rainbow trout while at camp. Further downstream, near Cañon City, you’ll see rugged red-rock canyons, the cactus-strewn high desert environment of Bighorn Sheep Canyon, and even the world-famous Royal Gorge.
