Frisco Rafting
At roughly 9,100 feet above sea level Frisco, Colorado sits in the heart of Colorado’s Rocky Mountains. The Tenmile Range, perfect for hiking and biking adventures, stretches from downtown Frisco to Breckenridge. In addition to exploring historic Main Street Frisco and taking a side trip to the Lake Dillon Marina, the town of Frisco, Colorado is an excellent starting point for whitewater rafting.
Frisco Whitewater Rafting Options
Frisco sits in the central part of Colorado, which means nearby rafting options are plentiful. Whitewater rafting opportunities span three rivers – the Colorado, Arkansas and Blue – as well as Clear Creek. The most convenient Frisco rafting trip is a short whitewater outing on the Blue River, less than 10 minutes away! Within an hour of town, you’ll find even more: beginner float trips, intermediate whitewater adventures and advanced rafting thrills to suit any taste or ability. 
- Blue River – The most convenient Frisco rafting adventure, Blue River whitewater trips meet at our Breckenridge Basecamp, just 10 minutes south of Frisco. After a short drive, we’ll launch to a scenic backdrop of the stunning Gore Range.
