Experience "The West's Best Short Whitewater Trip," as named
by National Geographic magazine. Westwater Canyon
is a spirited oar-powered and paddleboat trip* on
the Colorado River. Guides expertly row through exciting
waves and swirling pools dwarfed by stunningly beautiful
and unique black, gold and red canyon walls. Hikes
to historic cabins, mysterious caves, and Indian petroglyphs
punctuate the river's course. Rapids such as Funnel
Falls, Skull Rapid and Sock-it-to-Me provide plenty
of excitement while calmer waters on the last part
of the river offer a relaxing end to the perfect day
trip. *Note: Use of paddleboats may depend on water
levels. We reserve the right to not use paddleboats
in the case of dangerous water levels. See
