Twice named "Colorado Company of the Year"! Wilderness Aware Rafting operates on five different rivers in Colorado and on the Salt River in Arizona near Phoenix and Tucson. Trips range in duration from 1/2 - 10 days and include Wild-water, family whitewater, guided float fishing, and inflatable kayaks. Our trips represent a full range of difficulties, but most do not require any previous experience.
We offer world-class whitewater, scenic horseback rides, downhill mountain bike rides, jeep tours and mine tours with top-quality meals included! Visit our new 7,200 square foot facility located on the banks of the Arkansas River in the Colorado Rockies. Established 1976. Outstanding safety record, experienced guides.
Whitewater Rafting...
Twice Named Colorado's "Company of the Year." We 1/2 day to 10 day guided rafting trips on 5 Colorado rivers including America's most popular - the Arkansas River near Pikes Peak Area, Royal Gorge, Denver and Buena Vista; Dolores River near Durango; Gunnison River near Grand Junction; Upper Colorado River near Vail and Summit County; and North Platte River near Steamboat Springs. Our rigorous training program ensures you will have the mostly highly trained professional guide on the river. And our 7,000 square foot riverside facility is designed to get you organized and off to the river in style.
Inn-to-Inn Rafting Trips...
A special trip for the discriminating rafter. We raft during the day and stop for the night at comfortable bed and breakfast inns near the river. Inn-to-Inn rafting is all-inclusive and perfect if you are seeking world-class excitement with all the comforts of home.
Downhill Mountain Biking...
The best part of our downhill mountain biking adventures is that you can enjoy the thrills of mountain biking in Colorado's majestic Rocky Mountains without ever having to peddle uphill! You'll experience spectacular views of the Arkansas River Valley's numerous 14,000-foot tall peaks as you soar through pristine aspen groves and high mountain pine forests. This is a family adventure that will be the highlight of your Colorado vacation!
Horseback Riding...
Our stables are located in the perfect spot to take advantage of breathtaking views of snow-covered peaks while passing through aspen glades and crossing flowing creeks. We offer one to four hour rides as well as all day trips to timberline. Well-mannered horses and personable guides make your time with us relaxing yet exciting.
Jeep Trips...
We climb in open topped jeeps up the steep and rocky switch backed tracks and quiet tree lined mountain roads leading to scenic ghost towns, abandoned mines, and peak filled views of endless mountain ranges. Buena Vista is in the heart of the Rocky Mountains with more 14,000-foot tall peaks in our county than in any other county in the US! Jeeping with us will create memories for a lifetime!
