This 2-day adventure through the Gunnison Gorge in western Colorado is adjacent to the newly created Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park. This 14-mile stretch of gold medal trout water has been nominated for "Wild and Scenic River" designation. It also receives expanded protection as a National Conservation Area. Getting to the river requires an easy mile-long hike down a narrow trail. The boats and group gear are brought into the canyon on horseback the day before the trip. You will need to carry your own personal gear down the trail to the "put-in". The hike in is rewarded with dramatic canyon scenery, picturesque views and remarkable solitude.
Each day has a mix of exciting whitewater and calm water float time. Our camp for the night will be on a sandy or grassy bench where you take a hike up toward the rim, or enjoy the world-class fishing, or just kick back for a happy hour drink while you watch the river flow by. Only two groups of twelve people per day are permitted to raft the Gunnison Gorge, assuring you a quality wilderness experience. Hiking, fishing, swimming and testing our skill in the rapids are all part of what makes the Gunnison River a favorite of our guests as well as our staff!
