Overview

This paddling trip offers a quick teaser of the scenic beauty and easy rapids of Castle Valley! Our half-day trips give you about 2 hours on the water to take in the incredible beauty of this sandstone paradise. Meet at the Mild to Wild office to check in and get ready for the river! Your guides will get you fitted for a PFD (aka life jacket) and then hop on the shuttle for a scenic 40 minute drive out to Castle Valley. Once there, we’ll have a safety orientation and some paddling instruction before you push off with the fleet for the next couple hours. Kayaking trips float with the rafting trips, and the guides will give you instruction as you paddle along. The kayaks move much faster than the rafts, so on occasion you may have to wait up for them. More time to take in the scenery, we say! This is a very mild rafting trip, with mostly calm flat water with a couple rapid sections sprinkled in along the way.

What's Included

  • Inflatable kayaks and paddles
  • Shuttle from and back to our meet location
  • Coast Guard approved life jackets
  • Gratuities
  • Lunch/snacks
  • Wetsuit rentals ($15, recommended March-April)
