Castle Valley is the poster child for Western landscapes, and you’ve probably already seen it somewhere in a John Wayne movie, TV show, or a commercial or two. And if somehow you have, in fact, never laid eyes on Castle Valley before, you’re not going forget it once you do!
This serene section of the Colorado River moseys through a big beautiful valley lined with monuments. Along the way are some of Utah’s most impressive geologic features like Fisher Towers, Castleton Tower, the Priest and Nuns, and more.
As for the waters here along the Colorado River, it stays pretty warm from late spring to early fall. You’ll spend most of your time floating, with a few Class II rapids to cool you off along the way. Expect plenty of fascinating interpretations and fun stories from your river guide on this mild trip!

We loved this half day adventure! My 9 and 12 year old sons asked if we could go back the next day. The rapids were great but they also just really dug swimming alongside the boat. It was a perfect combo of mellow beauty and fun adventure. Our guide Abby was awesome too!

Amazing time with the Mild to Wild gang. Chelsea was great guiding us in the boat (we did a half day trip with our 3 kids, 8, 11 and 12 years old). Good time, super safe through the rapids and the kids loved it. Chelsea was super informative, great insights on the area, Colorado River, spotting the celebrity hideouts and the bald eagles! Great company, great time. Go see’em!

This was my first river rafting trip and the Mild to Wild crew made it a great experience. Shawn was a great tour guide who made sure we were safe and shared lots of fun facts along the way.

Trip was a last minute decision and definitely worth it. My kids are 5,8 and 14, they had a great time and was enough adventure for all of them without being too much for my youngest. The guides were amazing and very knowledgeable about the surrounding areas. Will definitely go back next time we are in the area!

My husband and I had never gone rafting. This was a perfect introduction. A knowledgeable energetic staff. Our guide Hannah was very competent and kind. She was also an expert on the environment especially water usage. Would highly recommend. Also a beautiful drive to the launch point

While we had some issues with booking, in the end Grace straitened everything out and we had a fabulous trip with Ben as our river guide. He imparted lots of info and was able to easily turn our raft to see wildlife ( including a bald eagle nest where two yearlings were sitting side x side on a log near the nest) and rock formations and anything that was important to see. Worth the trip, now thinking we could have done the full day. Drawbacks: meet at 8:30. Did not get on the the river until 10:15. Not a problem about driving to the input point, but could have met at 7:30 and been on the river more than 1 & 1/2 hours. That being said, river was moving, the rapids ( up to 2 1/2 rating according to our guide) were fun and Ben prepared & guided us safely through without mishap. We would recommend this trip, even for your kids 8 or older. We had two young kids in our boat with their dad and the 2 of us who are over 68. Ben was great and interacted with us all, as well as keeping track of the other rafts in our group. Great trip! Kudos to Ben👍👏
