Colorado Whitewater Rafting in Idaho Springs, Colorado
AVA’s Idaho Springs Outpost Serving Clear Creek
Arkansas Valley Adventures’ Clear Creek/Idaho Springs Outpost is located just 30 minutes west of Denver in one of Colorado’s old mining valleys. We’ve chosen to set up in this area for easy access to some of the best whitewater in Colorado.
River trips leaving from Idaho Springs offer river trip choices for any levels of rafting, from beginner whitewater rafting to intermediate river trips to advanced whitewater rafting trips.
