White Water Rafting and Kayaking
As evidenced by the repeat appearance year after year of the Teva Mountain Games, the Vail Valley is one of the most exciting destinations for white water rafting and kayaking. What makes it so special is that there is plenty of class 5 whitewater for the expert boater or the adventure-seeker but also plenty of calm, slow water for families to enjoy a nice peaceful float down the river.

Whether on the Colorado or Eagle Rivers, or Gore Creek through Vail Village and Lionshead, there are plenty of wonderful boating options for you, the kids, or you AND the kids! One of the many, many reasons Vail is the best place for families in the summer.
