Make the most of your trip by following a few simple guidelines:
If you’re looking for a heart-pumping whitewater adventure, then look no further than the Royal Gorge. This stretch of the Arkansas River is peppered with exciting class III-V rapids with names like Sunshine, Sledgehammer, and Boat Eater. These rapids are steep meaning there is more whitewater, continuity, technicality, but ultimately more excitement. The Royal Gorge also has double the gradient of other canyons such as Bighorn Sheep Canyon that runs at about 35 feet per mile. Although the faster pace makes rafting in the Royal Gorge more exhilarating, it is highly recommended that anyone looking to take the plunge down this exciting stretch of the Arkansas river be extremely comfortable in water and know how to swim.
For a day full of fun for the whole family, combine a river rafting trip with a Royal Gorge train ride. After your morning white water adventure, we’ll shuttle you back to Echo Canyon and the 8 Mile Bar & Grill, where you can relax and energize with some world-class food as you prepare for an afternoon Royal Gorge Train ride.
Imagine combining the exhilaration of flying above gorgeous Rocky Mountain scenery on Colorado zip lines with a day of white water rafting adventures. This combo trip package will not only leave you breathless, it’ll be an experience you’ll never forget.
