Raft Rentals & Packages

Do you have experience rafting the Colorado River? That’s perfect because we have all the rafts and gear you need to build a righteous rafting trip this season. Our full day and overnight packages come fully loaded with everything you need to enjoy some time floating down the river.

 

Check out the full list of river gear that is available through AVA Rafting at Colorado River Rentals.

We rent river gear, boats and equipment from our office in Kremmling, CO near the Upper Colorado River. The Upper Colorado River is a scenic section just south of Kremmling where you can travel 10 miles for a half day trip or float downriver for several days. Colorado River Rentals has the gear and equipment rentals to make your river trip happen. We are excited to provide you with great gear for your rafting, fishing, stand up paddle boarding, or kayaking adventures this summer.

What We Rent

Rafts

The rafts you can rent include 13-foot, 14-foot, and even 16-foot raft. We do take your safety seriously and make sure you will have all the appropriate gear such as a personal flotations device, so those are included in the price of your rental.

Stand Up Paddleboards

We offer stand-up paddle boards to rent for just one day or up to three. This is a great way to make your Colorado River trip a bit more challenging!

Inflatable Kayaks

We like to call them duckies and they are a great way to get closer to the waves and the action. Duckies are great for beginner kayakers.

Gear

Wetsuits, PFD’s, helmets & more

Safety is key when going out on the river. We can provide you with every single thing you need from life jackets to coolers and groovers.
