Full description

Enjoy some of the most scenic and thrilling Rafting and Ziplining in one action-packed day from our Idaho Springs outpost, just 30 minutes from Denver. Fly from ridge to ridge over the forest and historic Idaho Springs on our Cliffside Zipline course, experiencing hanging bridges and a dual race line. After descending down the mountain, you will finish with an exciting 450-foot line running directly to our outpost. The other half of the day will get you out on exciting whitewater! Our Lower Canyon white water rafting trip takes you straight into the Class IV section of Clear Creek. This is a great option for rafters seeking a little more challenge than our introductory whitewater, but it’s still appropriate for physically fit first-timers, as you’ll get plenty of excitement on each rapid without the pressure of continuous whitewater! Bring your own picnic lunch, or grab lunch in Idaho Springs.

We had such a great zip-lining experience! The Johan & Quein were super friendly, welcoming, and attentive from beginning to end. They made us feel safe and comfortable the entire time and were very patient with everyone. It was such a fun and family-friendly experience, and we felt very well taken care of. We had an amazing time and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a fun adventure! 🌲
