The Royal Gorge region's ultimate multi-adventure hub — rafting, ziplining, luxury glamping, and dining all in one campus along the Arkansas River. Home to four world-class adventure operations serving thousands of guests each season.
Royal Gorge Epic Adventures is the name that ties together the four signature experiences that define the Arkansas River corridor — Royal Gorge Rafting, Royal Gorge Zipline Tours, Royal Gorge Vacation Rentals, and Whitewater Bar & Grill. Located at 45045 W US Hwy 50, this riverside campus has been the heartbeat of adventure tourism in Cañon City for over two decades, welcoming thousands of guests each season.
What makes this campus unique is the seamless combination of adventure and relaxation in one place. Arrive in the morning for a whitewater rafting trip through the Royal Gorge section of the Arkansas River — one of Colorado's most dramatic stretches of Class III-V rapids. Then walk the path to the zipline launch area and soar above the canyon from a completely different perspective. Stay the night in a luxury cabin or glamping yurt just steps from the river. Celebrate at the outdoor bar and grill as the sun drops behind the mountains.
The team behind Royal Gorge Epic Adventures has built a reputation for safety, professionalism, and unforgettable experiences. Every guide is trained to the highest standards. All equipment is provided and inspected before every trip. Whether you've never touched a paddle or you're a seasoned river runner, the operations here scale to your experience level.
The campus is uniquely suited for large groups — family reunions, corporate team-building events, bachelor and bachelorette parties, and school groups all find the multi-activity format perfect for diverse interests. Custom packages can combine rafting, zipline, dining, and lodging into a full-day or multi-day itinerary.
