- Rancho Del Rio - The Upper Colorado River is one of the best river sections in the State to try out river toys. There are several stretches of slow-moving water on our Colorado River trips that are perfect to play around on an inflatable kayak. We run inflatable kayaks alongside guided river trips with rafts.
An inflatable kayak or “ducky” is a sit-on-top style kayak made of rubber that has multiple chambers filled with air. This offers a more personal experience with the river meaning you will follow your guides but will navigate your own boat down the river. We have both single passengers as well as double-person ducks for those who would like to paddle with a partner. You must be at least 12 years old to use a ducky on this trip.
Conveniently located to Winter Park and Breckenridge, Silverthorne, and Dillon, Upper Colorado River Rafting provides mild Class I-II rapids and occasional Class III rapids at higher water flow! Feel free to bring the entire family on this journey, as there is sure to be something for everyone.
First timer? No problem! Our guides will help you get comfortable with your river craft. The trip is approximately 3.5 hours.

This stretch of the Colorado River presents breathtaking views, featuring meadows, valleys, rolling ranch lands, and towering canyon walls, along with wildlife such as bald eagles, deer, beavers, and bighorn sheep—there’s always something to admire.
Paddle to a sandy shore to meet families of geese, explore the bases of massive cliffs, or navigate around smaller obstacles, wherever your curiosity leads. Share the experience with a friend in a tandem kayak, or enjoy the tranquility of a solo ducky.
Upper Colorado River Rafting offers gentle Class I-II rapids and occasional Class III rapids during higher water flow. If your group seeks thrilling, adventurous waters, the high-water season is the ideal time to visit. Traditionally, mid-June to early July marks the high-water season. When rivers are at their fullest, it promises an exhilarating ride. Choose a bold path or opt for a gentler route in your own ducky!
