About Noah's Ark Whitewater Rafting & Adventure Co.
Noah's Ark Whitewater Rafting & Adventure Co. is one of the longest-running rafting outfitters on the Arkansas River, guiding trips from its riverside base just south of Buena Vista since 1983. The family-run company sits at the doorstep of Browns Canyon National Monument, one of the most popular stretches of whitewater in the country, and has built a loyal following of first-timers and repeat paddlers alike.
Guests can choose from half-day, full-day and multi-day rafting trips spanning gentle Class II floats through the big Class IV-V rapids of Browns Canyon, the Numbers and Pine Creek. Beyond the water, Noah's Ark operates its own Browns Canyon Adventure Park with a multi-course aerial ropes challenge, ziplines and a via ferrata climbing route, plus rock climbing and rappelling for those who want to spend time on solid granite.
What sets Noah's Ark apart is its combination of longevity, its own private adventure park and a reputation for professional, safety-focused guides. Combo packages let visitors pair a morning on the river with an afternoon in the trees, making it a natural fit for families and groups looking to fill a full day of Colorado adventure in one stop.
