Ages 6+Colorado Rafting FAQ
Anyone can raft with us. Your guide can row the raft while you ride along and enjoy the view, or choose a paddle option to be an active participant in your rafting experience. Generally, we offer paddle rafts on Anthracite Creek and the Heart of the Valley, and oar rafts on the North Fork Gorge and the Gunnison Gorge NCA. Paddle rafters should be in average physical shape.
Anthracite Creek rafting is physically demanding and requires all participants to be strong swimmers, and have a high level of physical fitness. Oar boats are not available on Anthracite Creek.
