Green River Rafting Through Desolation Canyon In Utah
Escape to one of Utah’s most remote and breathtaking areas — Desolation Canyon. Located along Utah’s Green River, Desolation Canyon is nearly untouched and deeper than the Grand Canyon in some areas. Our Desolation Canyon trips continue on the legacy of Adventure Bound River Expeditions, combined with the legendary customer service and expertise of Mild to Wild Rafting & Jeep tours.
Amidst the stunning geological features of towering spires and abundant arches, splash through more than 60 class II to III+, family-friendly rapids that are dispersed throughout the trip. Experience Desolation Canyon on the Green River in a raft, or challenge the rapids with an inflatable kayak! The kayaks are brought along on all trips!
Live history by following John Wesley Powell’s expedition in 1869 as he descended Utah’s Green River, which has uncovered over 40 million years of geologic history in Desolation Canyon.
Get in touch with nature on large sandy beaches, water fights and swimming in warm waters, discovering ancient Native American ruins, abandoned homesteads, and scenic overlooks. Explore ancient art rock painting, archaic dinosaur habitats, and the hideout of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Catch sights of wildlife from bear, deer, bighorn sheep, blue herons, and one of the last bands of wild horses along the river corridor.
In camp, relax under giant cottonwood trees and sculpted precipices. Rejuvenate with family and friends around the crackling campfire, and sleep soundly under the starry night skies.
