Clear Creek Intermediate Whitewater Rafting near Denver

Clear Creek Intermediate Whitewater Rafting near Denver

Overview

Clear Creek Canyon is unique in the quantity and quality of its rapids. It has more rapids than nearly any other commercially run stretch of whitewater in the nation. It is also free-flowing, meaning that the water levels change throughout the season, offering a variety of experiences. In addition to world-class rafting, it is also the home of the 1859 Gold Rush. Gold is still found in the creek by intrepid miners using pans and dredges. Guests will pass many sites of historical significance related to the Gold Rush while rafting on Clear Creek. Clear Creek is also conveniently located nearby Denver and other surrounding resorts, making it the perfect day-trip excursion.

Was an awesome experience! Our guide (Luke) was great, very professional and clearly knew his way around rafting! I do recommend people be in reasonable health, as this is no slow-go trip!!

A very thrilling raft trip! The best part of the trip was our guide Joe who was very informative and kept us very safe. What a beautiful canyon for the trip and everyone was so helpful!

My husband and I had a great experience with our guide, John! I had never been rafting before but Downstream really emphasized safety and explained the technique very well. I did have experience both canoeing and kayaking. The river is gorgeous and you go down some super fun class III/IV rapids. We even saw some bighorn sheep! Just be sure to pack a dry change of clothes!
