Mild Cottonwood Family Float

Overview
This is by far the best Family Float trip on the Arkansas River! This convenient trip offers the best whitewater for little kids with spectacular Rocky Mountain scenery. Our 1/4 day is a 5 mile trip with easy Class II-III rapids. This is the perfect introductory trip for families with little kids or timid beginners. You will float from Coaldale to our riverside base in Cotopaxi while enjoying scenic views of the Sangre de Cristo Range. This itinerary is the best trip for rafting in Colorado on the Arkansas River for families with young kids. We are the only outfitter offering this trip since we conveniently finish this trip right at our riverside base!

We had a great experience with Kyle. He told us a lot of facts about the area. We had lunch afterwards and got to talk to him even more.

Our guide prepared us very well for what to expect and what to do in "unusual" situations. He gave very clear instructions during the trip and provided excellent training/practice with paddling skills. The ride was long periods of reasonably calm river (just a little bouncy) punctuated with several thrilling level 3 rapids.
