Raft the iconic Colorado River through Castle Valley, also known as the Fisher Towers section just outside Moab. This is the stretch every Moab rafting trip is built around, even if you see it called by different names. No matter the name, you are on the same legendary section of the Colorado River. Splash, laugh, and cool off as you move through a mix of calm sections and fun rapids. The river typically features Class I and II rapids, with occasional Class III during higher water earlier in the season, making it a great fit for all experience levels. Check the Colorado River off your bucket list with time to swim, enjoy beach stops, and take in towering red rock scenery. We are a smaller, more personal outfitter, focused on quality over volume, so you get a more relaxed and connected experience on the water. With over 40 years of experience, our team delivers a smooth, well run trip from start to finish.
