River Rafting Browns Canyon

The Brown's Canyon Super Deluxe is our most popular rafting adventure.

This full day of rafting includes 13 class III to IV rapids. You will experience rapids such as Canyon Doors, Pinball, Zoom Flume, Widow Maker, the Staircase, and the infamous Seidel's Suckhole. We leave enough time for a jump off "jump rock" into the refreshing waters of the Arkansas. Your group will travel 22 miles on the Arkansas River through the beautiful and most popular section of whitewater in the United States: Brown's Canyon. The Brown's Canyon Super Deluxe also includes our famous Buffalo Joe's Steak Lunch, complete with grilled corn on the cob, fresh garden salad, USDA approved top sirloin steak and dessert (vegetarian and chicken entrees available upon request). This trip, offered May through September, is the perfect blend of exciting rapids and beautiful wilderness scenery. Please arrive 45 minutes prior to your trip's departure. Guests may choose between a paddle boat (you paddle, the guide steers) or an oar boat (the guide does all of the work so you can relax, hold on, and enjoy the ride).
