About This Adventure

Raft Down the Colorado River in Moab Utah!

Duration

6 Hours

About

Whitewater Rafting in Moab, Utah is a must do when visiting the area. Our guided whitewater rafting trips run down the ‘Fisher Towers’ section of the Colorado River. This is an exciting stretch of class II/III rapids** and beautiful red rock scenery. We use 6-person paddle rafts to make sure we have big fun. Here is what to expect on a Paddle Moab outing: We will load up the vans and head up HWY 128 (river road) to the put-in where we load rafts. Once the rafts are in the water we will do a safety talk and go over paddling technique. After everyone is secure in their PFD(personal flotation device) we will push off from shore and go whitewater rafting. You will paddle through breath taking scenery of towering red rock canyons, go through many fun rapids, and enjoy lunch on a riverside beach. When we get to the take-out our shuttle vehicle will be waiting and we will head back to Moab. Join us for this fun and exciting trip and make memories for a lifetime.

**rapids change intensities at different water levels and times of year. Class 3 during spring run off.
