Duckies
line

Inflatable kayaks, also affectionately known as "duckies," are a great alternative to rafting and the perfect way to experience the exhilaration of piloting your own craft down the river. Our inflatable kayak trips are designed for individuals of all abilities that are not looking to learn a new sport but rather spend more time going down the river. These trips are suitable for families with young children and adventure seekers looking for a serious adrenaline rush. Inflatable kayaks also offer a great transition for those who wish to continue into hardshell kayaks.

2-Hour Trip: In partnership with the Telluride Kayak School, this great local adventure won't take up your whole day. We will start with an introduction and fitting of the necessary equipment at the boat house located upstairs in the Jagged Edge building (Main St., Telluride) and then it's off to the river! Starting near the bottom of lift 7, on the Upper San Miguel River, we will float 4 miles through the stunning and recently preserved Valley Floor. This is a perfect stretch of river for first timers and the whole family.

Cost: $50/person including all rental gear
