Kayak
the Colorado

One of our favorite ways to experience the Colorado River. Kayak the Colorado offers backhaul service from Lees Ferry so you can paddle downstream through Glen Canyon, past Horseshoe Bend, the Vermilion Cliffs, ancient petroglyphs, and stretches of river that feel wonderfully removed from everything. Make it a long day on the water or turn it into an overnight adventure with hiking and camping along the way.

Horseback riders beneath red sandstone walls in Cave Lakes Canyon

Horseback Riding
Cave Lakes Canyon

Cave Lakes Canyon is a beautiful private canyon just north of Kanab, and horseback is such a fitting way to see it. ROAM’s 1.5-hour guided ride winds through pasture and meadows beneath the red sandstone walls, passing some of the small lakes tucked into the canyon along the way. We have had a guest propose on one of these rides. Quiet Shelters guests receive 10% off with code QS10.

Climbers on the red-rock via ferrata in Cave Lakes Canyon

Via Ferrata
Cave Lakes Canyon

We’ve done this one ourselves and it’s seriously fun. A via ferrata is a protected climbing route where you’re harnessed in and climb the red rock using fixed rungs and cables. ROAM’s route takes you up the walls of Cave Lakes Canyon, then finishes with a 180-foot rappel back down. There aren’t many via ferratas around here, which makes this one pretty special. Quiet Shelters guests receive 10% off with code QS10.
