Experience the Clear Creek Classic 2h 30m rafting trip. Fantastic for multi-generational families, experienced rafters, and unexperienced rafters alike, this classic Colorado rafting run delivers an engaging river experience. While a bit more mild compared to the intermediate section up river, theres plenty of excitement to be had in an hour on the water full of steady paddling, continuous class II rapids, and eight class III rapids. Starting at Chicago Creek and taking out at Kermits Access, the trip spans 5 miles through the heart of historic Idaho, Springs unfolding a float full of historic sites including the Argo Mine and the Charlie Taylor Water Wheel.

As a free-flowing river fed by snowmelt, Clear Creek’s character changes throughout the season. In mid-to-late June during high water, expect more thrilling waves and splashes, while the late-season offers a more technical experience requiring precise navigation around exposed rocks to shoot through narrow river channels!
