Q&A

Q: Are there any age limits for kids on this rafting trip?

A: Great question! The Roaring Fork rafting trip is suitable for kids as young as 6 years old. Just make sure they’re comfortable in the water and can wear a life jacket properly. The guides are really good with kids and make the experience fun and safe for everyone!

Q: What should we wear for the rafting trip?

A: I'd recommend wearing quick-dry clothing, like swim shorts and a t-shirt. You’ll definitely want to have a swimsuit under your clothes too, since you might get splashed! Don’t forget sunglasses with a strap and sunscreen—trust me on that one!

Q: What's the rescheduling policy like if the weather is bad?

A: If the weather doesn’t cooperate, Glenwood Adventure Company will typically offer you a chance to reschedule for another day. They keep an eye on conditions to ensure safety. Just be sure to call ahead to discuss your options. They’re pretty flexible!

Thinking about gifting the Half Day Roaring Fork Rafting experience!

I'm considering this rafting trip for my cousin's family reunion. I've read that it’s great for beginners, which is perfect since most of them have never rafted before. The views of Mount Sopris sound breathtaking! Plus, it includes transportation and all the gear, which is a huge plus. Anyone who’s done this have tips or thoughts?

What to expect on the Roaring Fork Rafting trip?

I’m planning a trip with my buddies and we’re all first-timers. The mix of calm and class II/III whitewater sounds perfect for us. Can anyone share what the experience is like? How long does it usually last?
