YAMPA RIVER

Yampa River Whitewater Rafting

The last undammed tributary of the Colorado River System, the free-flowing Yampa River is a gem. Beginning in Deer Lodge Colorado, our Yampa River whitewater rafting trips take you for an amazing 72-mile journey. Along the way, you’ll experience astounding sandstone cliffs, thrilling Colorado whitewater, incredible campsites, and so much more. The Yampa River is a great family white water river rafting trip, group trip or perfect for the solo traveler.

Your Yampa River trip in Dinosaur National Monument with Dinosaur River Expeditions includes fun rafting and inflatable kayaking through spectacular scenery and exciting Colorado whitewater. Our guides will lead hikes to some of the finest ancient Native American sites in Dinosaur National Monument, where you’ll see 700-year-old petroglyphs, early pioneer sites, and the most amazing vistas of western canyons found anywhere.

"As someone who’s been on dozens of river trips across several states, I think the real value that Dinosaur River Expeditions' guides add is their unique knowledge, competence and commitment. Their enthusiasm and personal attention is unique. They’re great stewards of the river and its history, and I certainly am unwilling to go with anyone else."
