Telluride Afternoon Half-Day Rafting Tour on the San Miguel River

Overview
When it comes to Colorado whitewater, hardly anyone knows about the San Miguel River. Which is kind of a surprise! Given how much fun it is, on top of being in proximity to bougie and beloved Telluride.

The rafting section is gorgeously scenic, exciting for all experience levels, and pretty much a must if you want to spend the afternoon like a local. Its red sandstone canyon juxtaposed by flourishing pine forests make for a picturesque setting to recreate on this Rocky Mountain river.

Anyone who loves the outdoors will have an absolute hoot on this tour, whether it’s your first or hundredth time rafting. Just ask our guides, most— if not all!— will agree that the San Miguel is their favorite river to run.

Our afternoon on the river with Mild to Wild was fantastic. We had a mix of brand new rafters and a few who had gone previously...and all had a blast. Abby and Hayden were our guides and they made the trip so much fun. You could tell they loved being out there just as much as we did. Highly recommended!

We had a blast on our trip! The scenery was breathtaking. Our guide, Rio, was great. He was amazing with his ability to maneuver the boat and was super friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend going with Mild to Wild as they make the trip really easy and enjoyable! Thanks for a great day!!!

We had a blast on the afternoon San Miguel Rafting Trip. Our guide, Rio, was upbeat, encouraging, made us feel comfortable, and ensured we had a great time. The views and scenery were breathtaking, and there were so many parts of the river with such great rapids that the excitement was maintained throughout the experience. This was our third trip with Mild-to-Wild (rafting in Durango, a Jeep Tour in Durango, and rafting in Telluride), and we cannot speak more highly of how professional and organized the company is from start to finish. We highly recommend them!
