This package is available for those age 8 and up.The Royal Gorge Region of Colorado is a rugged wonderland of scenic hills, plunging canyons, and swift moving water. Formed over millions of years as the Arkansas River cut into the rising granite of the Colorado Plateau, the steep canyon is more than 1,200ft deep and, in some locations, less than 50 ft. wide. The broken, mountainous landscape makes it an ideal location for adventure seekers looking for new ways to challenge themselves in the glorious outdoors.
Your Zipline/Whitewater rafting combo trip starts with your selection of a morning or afternoon trip. Specific times are assigned in the order you sign up, with morning zip line trips starting every half hour between 8:00am and 9:30am, and afternoon trips beginning between 1:30pm and 3:00pm. After receiving your start time, you will begin at the Zipline course where you will have your choice of 9 different lines stretching over a mile in length. You will receive a brief safety training and overview from a guide and then climb out on the course to experience the fun for yourself.
After 90-minutes out on the course, it's time for refreshments before continuing the adventure. You will stop for lunch and snacks at the Whitewater Bar and Grill where you can grab a salad or a burger a glass of wine and enjoy the afternoon. Once satiated, you will continue to the Bighorn Sheep Canyon for your whitewater adventure. Although less strenuous than many of the other options available on the river, you should still expect class II and III rapids with the potential of class IV during the peak runoff season. Once you've complete this family friendly section of the river, you will unload for a short drive back to you starting location.
