Advanced Royal Gorge Whitewater Rafting Trip

Overview

Royal Gorge whitewater rafting is the ultimate half/full day rafting adventure trip in Colorado. Huge waves, steep technical drops, and almost continuous whitewater rapids in a narrow canyon await you with rapids like Sledgehammer, Wallslammer, the Narrows, Boateater and the infamous Sunshine Falls. The Royal Gorge may demand so much attention you don't even notice the world famous Royal Gorge Bridge 1053 feet above the river. This exhilarating trip is recommended for rafters or adventurers in good physical shape who are ready for aggressive paddling. Our Royal Gorge whitewater rafting trips are our most popular advanced trips! If you are seeking lots of excitement, this trip is for you and your group. Lunch will be served at a stop on the river.

We took out 2 trips! We did the Royal Gorge Grand-slam and then the next day a half day trip with our teenage kids. Our guide, E-Man, was awesome! We got lucky and got him for both trips. Do yourself a favor and and if it’s not 80 degrees, get the wetsuit and boots! So worth it! We went when it was less than 60 degrees out and they kept us warm enough and dry enough from the cold river water.

This was a great rafting trip. The water was only intermediate, so most of the big rapids were only class 4. It is not as exciting as some of the eastern rafting, but still a great trip. The scenery is amazing. Our guide was Zac O. and was tremendous. Knowledgeable about the region and the river. They provide a simple, but very good lunch. Little touches at the lunch are great. The equipment is first class. I recommend a wet suit if you cannot tolerate the 55 degree water temps with 65 degree air temps. We will do it again when the water flow is higher. We had 956 cf/ flow which is intermediate. I would love to do it above 1500 and see the difference, but wouldn't recommend it for beginners or weekend warriors. Love Arkansas river tours.
