Desert Highlights is Moab's original canyoneering guide service. This canyoneering and packrafting tour visits route that Desert Highlights' founder created as a technical guided canyoneering route in the late 1990's. Here, we explore a part of the canyon that most people would not visit on their own. With the use of ropes and other technical gear, a competent guide and a sense of adventure, we are able to explore areas that are otherwise inaccessible. We'll also use one-person, inflatable boats (packrafts) to enjoy a scenic float along the Colorado River. These boats are fun, unique and not used by any other company in Moab. The Moab desert is our home and we are passionate about sharing it with others. During your guided tour, you will not only safely descend a beautiful, water-carved canyon and float a beautiful section of the Colorado River, but you will learn about the flora and fauna, geology and history of the area that we are so lucky to call our backyard.

Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for this canyoneering and packrafting experience?

A: Yes, there is an age requirement! Typically, participants should be at least 10 years old to join the canyoneering part, but it really depends on the specific tour and the participant's physical ability. It's best to contact Desert Highlights directly if you're unsure about your kid's readiness. They’re super helpful!

Q: What should we wear for the canyoneering and packrafting tour?

A: You’ll want to wear comfortable, quick-drying clothes like swim shorts and a moisture-wicking shirt. Don’t forget sturdy shoes that can get wet! It's a good idea to bring a light jacket too, as it can get chilly on the river. Sunscreen and a hat are also must-haves!

Q: Are there options for rescheduling in case of bad weather?

A: Yes! Desert Highlights has a flexible rescheduling policy, especially for weather-related issues. If conditions aren’t safe, they’ll work with you to find another date that fits your schedule. Just make sure to call them in advance if you need to change plans!

Thinking of gifting the Moab canyoneering and packrafting tour!

I’m planning to surprise my partner with this combo experience. I read that it's super fun and you get to see parts of the canyon that aren’t typically explored. Has anyone done this? What was your favorite part? Also, how was the guide? I want to make sure it’s a memorable day!

Just did the canyoneering and packrafting combo - what an adventure!

OMG, this tour was epic! We had a fantastic guide who really knew the area and made us feel safe. The canyoneering was challenging but so rewarding. Floating down the Colorado River was the perfect way to end the day. Highly recommend for anyone into outdoor adventures!
