White Water Rafting Day Trip on the Arkansas River

Both trips start with us gathering at The Adventure Company's riverside facility for a hot fajita lunch buffet.  Lunch IS included in these trips!  After lunch, the 2 different trips will head out to the different sections of the river.

The intermediate trip:

• Somewhat continuous and medium-sized whitewater with moderate maneuvers
• No previous rafting experience necessary
• Some fitness and swimming ability recommended
• The ideal trips for just about everyone…the average first-time rafter, families with kids over 6 years of age, and the high-water thrill-seeker in June.
• Most of our first-time rafting customers typically choose an intermediate trip

The advanced trip:

• Large, difficult & continuous whitewater with some medium-sized drops
• Previous rafting experience recommended
• Good fitness and swimming ability required
• The ideal trips for the tested whitewater rafting veteran, and adrenaline seeking first-timers.

Being properly equipped on the river can make or break your experience! We offer rentals for sanitized wetsuits, neoprene booties, and splash jackets for those who are interested. Even if the air is warm, the water is chilly and you will be getting splashed! For your comfort, we recommend you taking advantage of this equipment.  Wetsuit rental is optional.

Complete Wetsuit Package  (Includes Wetsuit, Splash Jacket, & Neoprene Booties) $16.00 per person.

Lodging may also be available for anyone wanting to make a weekend of it.  If you are interested in lodging, please call Steve Collins ('87) at 303-351-1794, or e-mail me at Steve@SouthParkTours.com.
