Moab, UT Rafting – Castle Valley
More About This Trip
This serene section of the Colorado River moseys through a big beautiful valley lined with monuments, before cutting through a towering red rock canyon that meanders back toward Moab. Along the way are some of Utah’s most impressive geologic features like Fisher Towers, Castleton Tower, the Priest and Nuns, and so on.
As for the waters on this stretch, they stay pretty warm from late spring to early fall. You’ll spend most of your time floating, with a few Class II rapids to cool you off along the way. Expect river games, splash fights, and lots of fun interpretations from your river guide on this mild trip!
Those looking for more adventure usually opt for a kayak to take on the Colorado themselves, while loungers on the rafts soak in the Utah sun. Now, if the sound of Castle Valley isn’t floating your boat, check out Cataract Canyon for the biggest and baddest whitewater in Utah.
