The Colorado River trip through Cataract Canyon is the most popular trip for heavy-duty whitewater rafting. The first half of the trip is a leisurely float through the high, majestic, sandstone cliffs or Canyonlands National Park, with ample time for swimming, sunbathing, hiking to waterfalls, Indian sites, and other scenic attractions such as the Loop or the Dolls House.
Fifty miles down river you arrive at the head of Cataract Canyon, a point where two of the mightiest rivers, the Green and the Colorado, flow together. The power of these rapids is unequaled during spring run off. But by mid June the river mellows to a fun and enjoyable ride. This trip puts you in the heart of the whitewater action while the impressive natural quiet of the smooth water combines with phenomenal side hikes to make the perfect trip.
