Clear Creek River
The Clear Creek River is on the cutting edge of Colorado
rafting. . .
and Highside Adventure Tours is one of the few companies that
has the experienced personnel and special equipment to safely
guide Clear Creek river white water rafting trips.
Starting high in the Rockies, the Clear Creek River comes
roaring out of the winter snows to thrill beginners and experts
alike. When the water levels rise in spring and summer,
it creates a huge variety of incredible whitewater – and
the action is non-stop.
We have Clear Creek River White Water rafting trips
to suit any taste. Our beginner trip is fun and
affordable for everyone, including families and large groups
with members of varying abilities.
Our Clear Creek river rafting trips also include a variety
of intermediate trips and Class V advanced Clear Creek
river whitewater rafting adventures for advanced and expert
rafters. Our full or half-day trips are perfect for the
experienced whitewater enthusiast and offer nonstop paddling
through aggressive, fast moving whitewater that gets the adrenaline
pumping for even the most experienced paddlers. Our Clear
Creek River white water rafting trips offer Class 4-5 whitewater
that is fast and wild; and our famous BBQ lunch adds to the
perfect river rafting day.
But the thrill and enjoyment of running any section
of Clear Creek can hardly be overstated.
Clear Creek flows through a rugged valley and through many
small historic mining areas of Colorado, including the former
gold mining boomtown of Idaho
Springs, which is our
base of operations for our Clear Creek river rafting adventures. Conveniently
located, it is easily accessible from Denver, Boulder, Fort
Collins, and the rest of the Front Range Metro
Area, and is only 45 minutes from Denver.
