Full-day trips through scenic Browns Canyon are our most popular river adventure. The Browns Canyon Full-Day has it all - exciting white water, spectacular views of Colorado's tallest mountain range, a delicious deli-style lunch prepared riverside, and a feeling of getting away from the daily grind.

Browns Canyon of the Arkansas River is America's most popular whitewater rafting destination and for good reason. The character of this section is challenging to seasoned rafters, yet forgiving enough for first time rafters. Most of the large rapids in Browns Canyon are followed by a calm pool of slow moving water allowing an opportunity to either catch a quick breath of fresh mountain air or take a picture of the unique granite rock formations set off against the clear blue Colorado sky. With that kind of scenery, it is no wonder that Browns Canyon has been designated a Wilderness Study Area by the Bureau of Land Management.

Browns Canyon of the Arkansas will demand your attention as you challenge rapids like Widow-Maker, Zoom Flume, Seidel's Suck-hole or the vertical Silver Bullet. In June, when the river is swollen with snowmelt, prepare for a wet and wild ride with towering waves and powerful currents. During late July and August, the river changes, requiring technical maneuvers around rocks and dropping through narrow chutes.

For those short of time or on a budget, a shorter portion of the canyon can be rafted on our Browns Canyon ½-day trip, which covers approximately ½ the mileage of Browns Canyon Full-Day Trip and does not include a lunch.

Daily Launches: May to Labor Day Length: 18 miles Difficulty: Class III-IV Departure Time: 9:30 AM Adult Price: $83 Child Price: (Ages 7 -12) $69 Please arrive at least 30-45 minutes prior to departure time. This allows you time to check in, relax, and enjoy our complimentary breakfast before your trip leaves. Breakfast is available 7:30 am to 10:00 am. Minimum age increases during high flows in May and June. Book a group and every 14th member of your group rafts for free!
