Overview

Looking for a river trip that hits the sweet spot between adventure and relaxation? Welcome to the Roaring Fork River, where mountain beauty, clear water, and splashy rapids combine for a truly unforgettable float. This stretch — from Carbondale to Glenwood Springs — is a local’s favorite, and we can’t wait to share it with you.

Flowing clear and cold from the high country near Aspen, it winds through picturesque valleys, historic towns, and red rock canyons — and offers just enough splash to keep everyone grinning. As you float the Roaring Fork, you’re paddling through more than just water — you’re traveling through history, geology, and culture. Named for its lively current and “roaring” runoff, this river has carved its way through volcanic cliffs, cottonwood groves, and sandstone outcrops for thousands of years.

Ideal for families, first-timers, and anyone looking to unplug and experience the quieter side of Colorado rafting with less crowds then on the Colorado River.

Enjoy a perfect mix of calm water and whitewater. The float from Carbondale to Glenwood Springs offers incredible views of 13,000 ft. Mount Sopris, interesting geology, possible sightings of bald eagles and other wildlife, and fun class II/III whitewater.

This Class II-III paddle provides a thrill or two—like the infamous cemetery rapid—but there’s little chance of bouncing out of your raft. (And if you do, it’s usually nothing more than a refreshing dunk and no-big-deal hoist back into the raft.) Meander through gentle Class II and low Class III rapids, and calm, relaxing pools. Lounge on the boats or swim in peaceful areas as you wind through the Roaring fork Valley in Colorado's high country.
