Overview

This full-day tour in Cañon City combines a guided rafting trip and a zip line adventure lasting about 7 hours. The morning activity is a family-friendly rafting trip down Bighorn Sheep Canyon on the Arkansas River. Participants will navigate Class III rapids including Wake Up, 3 Rocks, Spikebuck, and Sharks Tooth, with calm stretches in between. The river passes through areas where Bighorn Sheep live, and the natural scenery can be observed along the way. After rafting, the group has lunch before moving to the Royal Gorge Zip Line Tours for the afternoon segment. The zip line tour lasts about 2 hours and includes 9 zip lines that extend over a mile across 100 acres of hillside on the Royal Gorge plateau. The final zip line is a dual race line that finishes the experience. Transportation between the rafting and zip lining activities is included, but participants must arrange their own transportation to the start location. Gratuities and souvenir photos are not included. The tour runs in all weather conditions, and children must be accompanied by an adult. The minimum age to participate is 6 years old.
