Already looking forward to next year’s Clear Creek trip? Read more below and get stoked for your next rafting adventure.
Clear Creek is a fast moving narrow “creek” along Highway 70. However, during most of your trip you won’t know that you are right off the highway because in the river valley you are surrounded by the beautiful national forest. Gold Rush is a class III rafting trip that lasts about 1/3 of a day. This is a great trip for families and those looking to enjoy whitewater and paddling but don’t want to take on large challenging waves. Upper Clear Creek is the class IV section of river that is great for those groups who want to work together and paddle hard through some large splashy waves. Lower Canyon is the class V section of clear creek that moves very fast through large waves. We recommend this trip for those looking to paddle long and hard.

With panoramic views of the 14,000+ Collegiate Peaks Mountain Range and the Arkansas River valley, these trips provide plenty of opportunities to experience some of Colorado’s most beautiful scenery. Keep your eyes peeled, as you may even spot wildlife!
Our Buena Vista outpost even provides opportunities to package your rafting experience with an exciting Zipline or Via Ferrata trip and make the most of your final summer adventure before school starts up!
