About the Arkansas River Milk Run Float Trip
Our Milk Run float trip follows one of the mildest sections of the Arkansas and is a perfect way to introduce your young children to the river. Your adventure begins at Wilderness Aware’s riverside rafting office where you begin your float from our private launch area. Towering cottonwood trees line the quickly moving river as you pass through lovely ranch country at the base of the stunning Sawatch Mountain Range where 14,000-foot tall peaks create a perfect backdrop. Depending on flows, the 3.5 mile trip to the private beach at Fisherman’s Bridge takes 30 minutes to one hour.
