- San Miguel River - Grab a paddle and guide, and spend the day better than anyone else around Telluride! Full Day rafting trips on the San Miguel offer fun and friendly whitewater while bounding through scenery seldom seen in Colorado.
The morning portion of these trips start in a narrow sandstone canyon, with constant class II and III rapids. This twisting stretch requires more technical paddling as you skirt around boulders and bends in the river. We absolutely love this stretch, as the forest engulfs the scenery between the red cliffs.
After a couple hours, we’ll stop for a well-deserved deli style lunch! Then it’s back in the boats for another beautiful stretch of the San Miguel where the canyon opens up and more wildlife tends to come out. Your guide will spill the juicy details about the area in between paddle commands along the way. Be ready for plenty of class II drops and wave trains!
All trips come with a safety orientation and paddling instructions from our experienced and fun-loving river guides. You’ll get acquainted quickly! As you’ll be steering the boat with them the whole way.
