Extreme rafting adventures on Royal Gorge and Numbers
Many of our guests gravitate towards our trips that combine a wilderness rafting experience with a healthy degree of safety. But if you’re looking for a wilder experience while Colorado white water rafting, we have the perfect trips for you, too. Wilderness Aware has been rafting Class V rapids in the most challenging sections of river around the state for years, and we’ve used that experience to create the best extreme Colorado rafting trips. Are you an experienced rafter looking for a more intense adventure? Take a look at our extreme Colorado white water rafting trips in Royal Gorge or Numbers, and get ready for the ride of a lifetime. Rafting Royal Gorge on the Arkansas River is the most popular extreme trip in the state for good reason. Drop after drop of pounding whitewater framed by stunning sheer cliffs means heart-pounding excitement for you and your friends—and stories you’ll be talking about for years to come. If you’re worried about getting thrown into the fray too quickly, don’t: we spend the morning warming up for Royal Gorge rafting in the scenic Lower Bighorn Sheep Canyon, a picturesque stretch of whitewater where the rapids are similar to those found in Browns Canyon. After a picnic lunch, we’ll take the plunge into one of the most exciting spots for white water rafting in Colorado. Don’t miss the views of the world’s highest suspension bridge (1,053 feet!), the world’s longest single-span Aerial Tram, and the world’s steepest incline railway. If you want to take your experience rafting Colorado a step further, consider our trip down the Numbers section of the Arkansas River. The trip begins in a steep, rocky upper section of the river, where precision paddling and maneuvering are musts. The rapids come hard, fast, and close together in this section, while your guides scout for resting spots. After lunch comes the Narrows section of the river, where the action mellows out a bit but continues to put your rafting skills to the test. The trip ends at the beach where your car is parked, which means you’re just a short walk away from our office, a steaming mug of hot chocolate, and photos from your trip. Both trips test your skills and amp up the adventure of your rafting experience. For more information on the best spots for rafting in Colorado or Buena Vista whitewater rafting, visit www.www.inaraft.com. Whether it’s a family vacation or an extreme rafting adventure, we have everything you need to make your Colorado rafting trip the memory of a lifetime.

Plan Your Perfect Colorado Whitewater Rafting Trip!
Are you looking into planning a Colorado whitewater rafting getaway, but don’t know where to start? Between finding the right rafting company, the right deal, and the right trip location, pulling a rafting vacation together can be overwhelming. Here’s a quick breakdown of our different rafting locations and trip specials to help you find everything you need in one place.

If you have a group of 21 people or more, and you want to stay together as a group on the river, your best options will be trips on the Arkansas or Upper Colorado rivers. White water rafting Colorado with a large group can double your fun and adventure when you’re on the right river with the best guides—and Wilderness Aware can give you both. …But size isn’t everything. For groups smaller than 21 people, a more intimate wilderness setting is a great choice. The North Platte River in northern Colorado or the Dolores River in southern Colorado may be just what you’re looking for. With frequent wildlife sightings, unmatched scenery, and a slower pace, these rivers can offer you a retreat you’ll talk about for years to come. If you’re going even smaller with 10 people or less, start by taking a look at our trips on the Gunnison River. With a setting that’s stunning as well as intimate, this trip gives visitors the most remote and exclusive rafting experience Colorado has to offer. A smaller group allows you to have a trip that can be a bonding experience as well as a great adventure. Weekend warrior? If you’re looking for rafting near Denver, you’ll want to consider our trips on the Arkansas River. Made the most popular river in Colorado by its continuous rapids and ready access to Colorado’s front range cities such as Denver and Colorado Springs, these trips provide a shot of adventure and still allow you to get home and unwind. The best choice for white water rafting near Denver and Colorado Springs! Whether you’re looking for Colorado horseback riding or Royal Gorge rafting, we’re here to make it happen. Don’t forget to check out our information on planning trips for youth groups, Boy and Girl Scout troops, or other special groups. The above rivers can serve as a great starting place for planning your trip, but for more information on rafting Colorado or planning a Colorado rafting vacation, give us a call at 719.395.2112 or visit us at www.www.inaraft.com.
