OVERVIEW

Package a thrilling zipline tour with the Upper Clear Creek 1/2 Day rafting trip for an adventure of a lifetime! Start off the day on AVA’s Cliffside Zipline Tour. With 6 exciting lines and additional features such as the Jungle Bridge, and more, this is a can’t-miss Colorado adventure! Finish off with an exciting 450-foot line running directly over Chicago Creek and landing in the backyard of our office.

Between rafting and zip lining enjoy time for a picnic on our deck or grab lunch in town (2 min drive, 5 min walk).

After lunch, it’s time to raft the exciting and technical whitewater of the Upper Clear Creek rafting! Starting high in the canyon, there’s just enough time to warm up before you drop into the first class IV rapid. You’ll encounter 30 major rapids on this 8-mile trip dropping an incredible 1,300 vertical feet. This continuous, steep, technical section will keep your paddle moving and your heart thumping as you crash through pulsing, Class IV rapids.
