Moab, UT Rafting – Castle Valley

More About This Trip
Parked along the lower Colorado River in southeastern Utah, Moab offers a plethora of spectacular white water rafting opportunities. Cooling splashes and calm swimming waters beautifully balance the dry desert heat. With trip options ranging from 1/2 to 6 days and varying rapid sizes, there is an experience for everyone.
Daily Rafting
The Moab Daily section of the river, also known as Castle Valley and Fisher Towers, begins approximately 25-30 miles upstream from Moab, depending on the trip length and water flow conditions.
The winding river corridor offers stunning views of the 12,000-foot La Sal Mountains, surrendering into the surrounding red rock rendered landscape. The journey features mild Class I and II whitewater, rolling through the likes of Onion Creek, Landslide, and Rocky Rapids.
Moab Rafting Single Day trip options include:
Step up the level of adventure and control your own destiny in a single or double inflatable kayak. These fun-sized rubber river crafts amplify the whitewater experience, adding extra splashes and excitement. Inflatable kayaking trips depart and return with Moab white water rafting trips.
Multi Day Rafting
Want to prolong your fun river adventure and add in some catered camping? The Moab daily rafting section can be extended upstream or downstream, adding more rapids, sandy beaches, and deep canyon walls to your journey. Perfect for families and youth groups, the stretch is an ideal 2 or 3-day trip.
For the more adventurous, Cataract Canyon spans 99 miles of the Colorado river from Moab to Lake Powell through Canyonlands National Park. With more than 30 class III and IV rapids, the trip has the biggest and baddest whitewater around. Not to mention the park’s rich archeological history with many sites along the river bed. Cataract Canyon can be done in a 3,4,5, or 6 day trip depending on your preference for side hikes, archaeological stops, and time spent relaxing at camp.

Kelly Cornelius2025-08-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a fun 1/4 trip over Labor Day weekend! Caleb was our guide and he was great. Hoping to do a multi day in Moab and will request him as our guide! Kim Webb2025-08-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It was great, loved the jeep ride, we even saw a bear! I am so glad that we only did the train one way, it would have been a really long day if we had rode it both ways. It was really heard to pick the place to sit on the train trying to guess what the weather would be like, so far in advance. I wish we would have sat in the open air car , but I did see a lot of people standing up and may have blocked my view. Over all it was a great day!! Rusty Havener2025-08-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lauren was an amazing guide... She was in charge and made us feel safe as well as having fun. 5 stars is not enough for her or the team Lacey Booth2025-08-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Did rafting today with Caleb as our tour guide. He is an epic guide and all though a short trip it was a lot of fun. Dennis Pocius2025-08-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A great guide can really elevate a tour, especially when they go the extra mile To make sure everyone feels informed and safe. Kat clearly knows her stuff!
