Trip Recommender
Start your day by rafting the continuous, steep Class IV section of Clear Creek known as Upper Clear Creek. It’ll have your heart racing all morning and you’ll get to enjoy this rapids adventure just 30 minutes west of downtown Denver, Colorado. After a quick lunch break, head to the cliffside for AVA’s mountaineering excursion! The Via Ferrata is a combination of traversing the cliffside, rappelling, a free fall, and concluding your trip by ziplining back down to our outpost. Spend your day venturing through the mountains on with this thrilling combo of activities!

At AVA Rafting & Zipline, we believe you should know what you’re buying and how much you’re going to spend. We believe in added value to make your experience special. We don’t want you to feel “nickel and dimed” when you show up for your trip with us. That’s why we provide wetsuits and splash jackets free of charge on your Upper Clear Creek Rafting trip. You’ll pay over $20 per person with some other outfitters. Your Via Ferrata tour also includes everything you need. We try our best to prepare you with gear lists and suggested things to bring so that you don’t end up paying for unneeded add-ons.
