Kayaking has never been better in Glenwood Springs
Come enjoy this one million dollar whitewater park! – The Glenwood Springs Whitewater Park, constructed in 2008 on the Colorado River right next to the Midland Avenue Bridge, on your way to Target, and located near the Harley Davidson Dealership. It has been a monumental success for many reasons. One of the best parts about this park is the diversity. It can be enjoyed by all levels of intrigue and skill in water sports, including rafters, inner-tubers, kayakers, boogie boarders, and even the occasional surfers just to name a few. The “G-wave” as locals call it, has created an international buzz as one of the top freestyle play parks and water features in the world. In the up and coming sport of freestyle kayaking, this million dollar venue has now held two world class competitions.
If you have always been interested in Kayaking, Glenwood Springs is a great place to learn. From beginners to advanced kayakers, there are classes and workshops to give you the skills and practice you need to be proficient on the river.
