The Lower Gorge area of the Rio Grande south of Taos is a family favorite in northern New Mexico. Enjoy a morning spent calmly floating the beautiful Orilla Verde Scenic Float section and then after a tasty riverside lunch head downstream into the fun and splashy class III rapids of the Racecourse section. For those who want to spice this trip up a little, choose to paddle your own inflatable kayak during the online checkout process!

In the afternoon, the river plunges into the Racecourse, a section of intense whitewater, with rapids named: Albert’s Falls, Herringbone, Narrows, Big Rock, and Sousehole (Class II-III +, depending on water level). At “Sousehole”, photographers will capture our splashy descent (link to Southern Exposure). We will take out at County Line Recreation Area and return you to your car by 3:00-4:00 pm.
