Colorado Family Whitewater Rafting For Ages 4+
Are you looking for a beginner or family whitewater rafting colorado trip? Our Lower Browns Canyon trip begins downstream of the big rapids of our normal Browns Canyon Half Day Trip. This makes it perfect for children as young as four, grandparents and beginners to the sport of rafting!
The river is fast-moving here with just enough whitewater to keep the whole family entertained, making it one of the best family rafting trips in Colorado. There are stunning views of the snow-capped 14,000 foot Collegiate Peaks to the west and up-close views of the drier and lower peaks to the east. Huge cottonwood trees line the river and irrigated green pastures make a beautiful foreground view of the alpine scenery. Our goal is to create excitement for the sport of white water rafting without the bigger rapids possibly scaring the less experienced members of the family.
Take a short drive from Denver or Breckenridge for some of the best beginner and family whitewater rafting Colorado has to offer!
