An amazing, full-day experience on the Arkansas River never seems long enough. Beginning in Canon City, Colorado, this Class II-III introductory whitewater trip is great for first timers and families wanting an exhilarating day of rafting in Colorado. Enjoy beautiful vistas set against the majestic Sangre De Cristo Mountain range, with varied rapids like Maytag, Five Points, Spike Buck, and Double Dip sure to leave a lasting and memorable impression. The canyon has abundant wildlife in their natural habitat, so there are plenty of viewing opportunities between the rapids, along the river's meandering banks. There are 18 miles of unforgettable whitewater to traverse. This full-day adventure includes a fresh, gourmet, deli-style lunch and plenty of opportunities to stop and swim along the way.

We are very happy with our decision to go with Lost Paddle for our rafting trip. Staff were fun and professional, and the lunch provided exceeded our expectations. The only sort-of negative is that the first half of the day was a little too low-key (lots of flat water) for my family, but my kids were too young to do the Royal Gorge. Still, lots of good times, and good memories. If we happen to vacation here again in a few years, we will certainly look up Lost Paddle for their Royal Gorge tour.

I highly recommend this rafting outfitter. The guide “Frank” was fun, entertaining and shared local history alone the way. I will back next season.
