Overview

Castle Valley is the poster child for western landscapes, and you’ve probably already seen it somewhere in a movie, TV show, or commercial. And if somehow you have, in fact, never laid eyes on Castle Valley before, you’re not going forget it once you do!

This serene section of the Colorado River moseys through a big beautiful red-rock canyon. As for the waters here along the Colorado River, it stays pretty warm from late spring to early fall.

You’ll spend most of your time floating, with a few Class II rapids to cool you off along the way. Expect plenty of fascinating interpretations and fun stories from your river guide on this mild trip!

What To Expect

Meet us at our Moab office! After you're checked in and fitted for a life jacket, we'll take a scenic shuttle out to the most dramatic section of Castle Valley along the Colorado River.

After a quick safety orientation we'll hit the river, floating into the beautiful red rock canyon of Castle Valley. In between the friendly class II rapid sections, your guide will share stories about the area's rich history, how these geologic wonders formed, and probably some river lore and good old fashioned dad jokes.

The afternoon section comes with more rapids between the flat water stretches, so feel free to paddle with your guide, or sit back and enjoy the splashes. After a couple hours on this serene stretch of the Colorado River, we'll take out and shuttle back to our office.
