Vail rafting in Colorado Summer with Sage

We are enjoying warm summer temperatures in our fine state, and it’s a perfect time to be on the water. When it’s hot in town and on the mountain, you know it’s time for a Vail river rafting adventure! 

Vail Whitewater Rafting Options

Rafting conditions throughout central Colorado continue to provide great opportunities this year. From exciting rapids to leisurely floats, we have rafting trips available for adventurers of all abilities and ages. These hot August days are the perfect time to enjoy a day on the water, and it’s arguably one of the best times to raft in Colorado.

The Upper Colorado River and the Shoshone Rapids in Glenwood Canyon are perfect activities for a hot summer day. Half-day trips are available in the mornings or afternoons, and there’s no better way to cool off.

Browns Canyon rapids include large, exciting rapids and calm stretches to recover, making it a great rafting choice for various skill levels. The Numbers, conversely, offer a powerful punch of class IV rapids. And these are just a few of our Colorado river rafting options!
