TUBE WITH SHUTTLE- NEW THIS YEAR!
Whitewater Tubing in Golden, CO on the Clear Creek- Reserve a tube or try our new tube w/shuttle package!
Tubing in Golden, CO is an exciting whitewater adventure! Last year we added our tube/shuttle package and customers are lovin’ it. You get 2 shuttle rides saving you 2 1/2 miles of walking to the put-in. If you enjoy exercise, opt for our tube rental and walk to the put-ins. Either way, the tube is yours from the time you pick up ’till 6pm! The whitewater play park in Golden is man-made and designed to be safer than naturally occurring rapids.
OUR TUBES ARE ONLY FOR USE IN THE CITY OF GOLDEN ON THE CLEAR CREEK DURING THE SUMMER SEASON WHEN WE ARE OPEN. DO NOT TAKE OUR TUBES UP ROUTE 6 PAST GATEWAY TRAILHEAD INTO THE CANYON OR TO TUNNEL 1- THAT AREA IS NOT SAFE.
Tube w/Shuttle- Open 7 Days
- Two shuttle trips to Gateway Trailhead along the Clear Creek. Whitewater tubing is different each time you float down so most people do two runs.
- Commercial grade river tube with complimentary lifejacket and helmet
- Tubing tips and safety talk
Daily Tube Rental (No Shuttle)- Open 7 Days
- Includes commercial grade river tube with complimentary lifejacket and helmet.
- Tubing tips and safety talk.
- Walk along the picturesque Clear Creek path with your tube through historic Golden to a variety of put-ins and then float back to Adventure West’s tube stand located right by the takeout in Vanover Park
- Customers generally tube for 2-3 hours; a single trip that includes walking to the furthest put-in (at Route 6 bridge in Golden) and floating back to our take-out takes about 1 hour
