Ancient River Tour: Extended Adventure

Gear up for an unforgettable full-day adventure with an exclusive launch from Willow Beach into the remote Black Canyon Narrows. Designed for experienced paddlers, this journey dives deep into the heart of the Colorado River’s wild side, offering eight miles of exploration, discovery, and unforgettable scenery.

As you paddle south through emerald waters, you’ll leave the crowds behind and venture into towering canyons, hidden coves, and untamed desert landscapes. Along the way, we’ll uncover ancient petroglyphs, take on a scenic canyon hike, and relax at a secluded beach where you can recharge with complimentary snacks, juice, and bottled water—and maybe cool off with a refreshing dip in the river.

This isn’t just a casual float—it's a full-day adventure that rewards your effort with sweeping canyon views, incredible wildlife sightings, and moments of pure solitude. On the way back to Willow Beach, your guide will help spot bighorn sheep, waterfowl, and more, while sharing stories that bring Black Canyon’s magic to life.

If you’re ready to spend a full day immersed in raw, beautiful nature—and you’re up for the miles—this extraordinary paddle is waiting for you.
