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

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

Overview

Short on time but big on adventure? The San Miguel half-day is the trip for you. Experience red rock walls forested in green pines while constantly paddling along. Constant Class II and intermittent Class III rapids will keep you engaged throughout this narrow, twisting waterway. The San Miguel is one of Colorado’s great secrets, come raft what you’ve been missing.
You’ll work with your guide to maneuver around fun obstacles in the water, but also have plenty of time to take in the scenery. Anyone ages 10+ will have an absolute hoot on this trip, whether it’s your first or hundredth time rafting a river.
This is a hands-on paddling trip! Be ready to navigate with your guide through this narrow canyon.

Our group of 12 adults and kids had a blast on the river with Mild to Wild Rafting! Our guides, Rob and Nate were awesome too!

I joined some friends on a trip on the San Miguel with Haydn C. and it was so much better than I had expected. It was my first time and I was nervous that I might get hurt, but Haydn C. was gentle with his giant boat and the rhythms of the water were super pleasant. The next day I was a little sore from the times it got rough and we had to work really hard to finish, but I keep thinking about it and definitely want to go back next time I'm in Telluride. Beautiful river and a great guide!

Really fun. Our boat guide was John, and he was super nice. This was a Class 2-3 rapid and he navigated really well. There were about 6 boats going down together and all the guides were definitely in control and worked together yet kept it fun. My daughter (11) and husband liked it. We did wear the wetsuits (not the splash shirt though...just long sleeve wool or synthetic on top) in late June and those were worth it. A very pretty trip, it made us want to do another, longer one.
