Westwater Canyon Rafting

Experience "The West's Best Short Whitewater Trip," as named by National Geographic magazine. This is a spirited oar-powered and paddleboat adventure* through Westwater Canyon. Guides expertly row through exciting waves and swirling pools dwarfed by stunningly beautiful and unique black, gold and red canyon walls of Southern Utah. Rafting trips take you on hikes to historic cabins, mysterious caves, and Indian petroglyphs which punctuate the river's course. Rapids such as Funnel Falls, Skull Rapid and Sock-it-to-Me provide plenty of excitement while calmer waters on the last part of the river offer a relaxing end to the perfect day trip.

*Note: Use of paddleboats may depend on water levels. We reserve the right to not use paddleboats in the case of dangerous water levels.

From the moment I first met your team, I was greeted with a smile, taken care of with great attention to detail, given thorough explanations about procedure and safety, and then told fascinating tales about the river and its magical history. Their generosity and good spirit made all of us feel that we’d made real friends with whom we could be ourselves - in comfort and ease.
