  • Arkansas River

The Arkansas is one of the nation’s most popular whitewater destinations, and for good reason: it has more opportunities for recreation than any other waterway in the state including but not limited to camping, kayaking, fishing and general nature observation.

The flow of the water varies, moving from crisp rapids to calm pools as it twists through Colorado. Overall, it is a fast paced, intense ride. The Arkansas also careens through steep canyon walls, creating some dramatic scenery for those willing to take the plunge.
