Rafting through Durango is just as popular with the locals as it is the visitors. It’s the perfect mix of excitement for all ages, with the added charm of floating through an impossibly picturesque town. You’ll catch plenty of splashes while getting to sit back and relax on this free-flowing Rocky Mountain river.
Half Day rafting trips on the Lower Animas are incredibly popular for busy schedules. You'll get a couple hours on the water with the best rapid sections.
Plus, our guides are well-trained and absolutely love what they do. You’ll get a hoot out of them as much as they get a hoot out of running this river.

Cần Quan Tâm
This must-do Durango adventure gives you around 2 hours on the river, taking you through the heart of this historic town and the funnest rapid sections. Families, friends, solo travelers, and locals of all experience levels absolutely love this trip! You'll bound through plenty of Class II rapids and one exciting Class III at Smelter Whitewater Park. Class II rapids are "fun and friendly," rolling over the bow and dousing those at the front of the boat. Class III rapids are "wet and wild," usually soaking everyone in the raft head to toe. Keep in mind the size of rapids will vary throughout the season with water levels, with spring typically having higher flows and summer lower flows. Don't worry if you're here later in the season, there's plenty of excitement to be had as we navigate between the rocks! Our experienced and entertaining river guides will get you downstream, sharing tons of fun stories, and fascinating history and insights about the area. You're welcome to paddle with your guide, or sit back and relax. All trips come with a safety orientation and paddling instructions from our experienced and fun-loving river guides. We take ages 4 and up on these trips!

5.00I highly recommend Mild to Wild. This was a wonderful experience from the time I booked until we returned to the store after the trip. The chat function on the website was efficient and useful. An AI assistant asked a few identifying questions and then immediately connected me to a representative. All representatives were helpful and courteous. On one of the chats we got cut off and the representative (Will) texted and called me to make sure my questions were answered. I initially booked for 6 but two had to cancel and I had no problem getting my money refunded. The trip done the Animas was exhilarating Jake was a great guide and made the trip special. I loved the class three rapid! Looking forward to returning next year.

5.00What a fabulous trip! We took my two grandkids. It was the first time they'd been river rafting and at first, they were a little nervous. After a few minutes, they were laughing and yelling--having the time of their lives. They kept asking each other if they were having fun and they each said they were having a super fun time. They loved going through the rapids too. Our guide, Jake, was fun and personable.
Amazing experience
