Colorado’s Big Bend Rafting Trips

White water rafting in Colorado is world-renown for its adrenaline-pumping white water, unbelievable scenery, and elite guides. Colorado’s stretch of the Arkansas River has everything from Class II – V white water, so you can be sure to find the right trip for you. 

For families that have young children or who may not be looking for the all-out adrenaline rush of a Class IV white water run, our Big Bend rafting trips are an excellent choice. Located in Buena Vista, CO, KODI Rafting’s Big Bend rafting trips cover Class II white water, and it is the perfect mix of excitement and scenery. 

What Is Class II White Water?

Class II white water is comprised of regular, predictable waves in large, unobstructed channels that are easy to navigate.

While Class II white water includes waves that can reach up to three feet high, the risk of injury is very low. Even if paddlers were to fall out, the large unobstructed channels means guides should be able to recover these swimming paddlers rather quickly.

Wildlife In Big Bend Rafting Trips

Colorado’s Rocky Mountain ecosystem is so complex and diverse that it is able to support a wide variety of large mammals, making Big Bend white water rafting trips as much about spotting wildlife as they are about adventure.

As the Arkansas River cuts through Colorado, you’ll pass through wide open spaces, farm land, and beautiful forest, all the while catching glimpses of some of Colorado’s tallest peaks.

Large birds of prey, including falcons and eagles cut across the sky, and you may even be lucky enough to see them scoop a rainbow trout out of the water! Big Bend rafting trips are also known to spot some of the area’s largest mammals, including bighorn sheep, moose, and even bears. You never know what you’ll get to see here!

Big Bend White Water Rafting Trips

Big Bend Rafting Half-Day Trip

Lasting an estimated 2- 2 1/2 hours of water time, our half-day Big Bend white water rafting trip will take you along an incredibly scenic stretch of river with some mild Class II white water. This stretch is perfect for families with small children.

Big Bend Rafting Half-Day Duckie Trip

Following the same route as our half-day Big Bend white water rafting trip, the half-day duckie trip braves the same Class II white water in a small inflatable kayak. The small size of the kayak makes the waves much more challenging, making the half-day duckie trip a perfect choice for families with a thrillseeker. Ask about adding a duckie to any raft trip.
