This is by far the best Family Float trip on the Arkansas River! This convenient trip offers the best whitewater for little kids with spectacular Rocky Mountain scenery. Our 1/4 day is a 5 mile trip with easy Class II-III rapids. This is the perfect introductory trip for families with little kids or timid beginners. You will float from Coaldale to our riverside base in Cotopaxi while enjoying scenic views of the Sangre de Cristo Range. This itinerary is the best trip for rafting in Colorado on the Arkansas River for families with young kids. We are the only outfitter offering this trip since we conveniently finish this trip right at our riverside base!

    We loved our whitewater rafting experience! I was with my mom and my two teenage boys who had never rafted before. Austin, our guide, was amazing! He was funny, shared a lot of fun facts about the area, and my boys really enjoyed him. He taught them how to paddle and they are now super excited to come back! This was the highlight of our whole vacation!

    This tour was amazing. We did the Cottonwood Family Float because we had never done whitewater rafting and weren’t sure what to expect. Both Paula and Jonah were amazing. They were both experienced, funny and put us at ease. The ride didn’t have a ton of rapids, but enough to make it fun. Perfect one for our first time. Would recommend to everyone and would love to do again with them. Tip: Use code to get the photos for free.
