When you’re planning a Scout trip, you’re not just checking off a merit badge; you’re creating an experience that builds real skills and confidence. River Runners has worked with Scout troops for decades, and we know what Scout leaders need: safe, well-coordinated trips that support your advancement goals and let you focus on your Scouts.
Many Scout troops use our trips for merit badge work, including Outdoor Adventure and Whitewater merit badges. We’ll help you choose the right experience based on your troop’s ages, abilities, and advancement goals.
Questions? Our team has worked with Scout troops for decades. Tell us what you’re planning, and we’ll help you build the right trip.
Scout group pricing is based on trip length, group size, and date, with tiered pricing for larger troops. All trips are led by certified guides trained for youth groups, and we’ll match your troop to river sections that fit your ages and skill levels.
Have questions about what to expect, safety protocols, or whether rafting is right for your troop? We’ve got you covered.
Safety is our top priority. All trips are led by certified guides with specific training for youth groups. Every Scout gets a thorough safety orientation, proper gear (wetsuits, helmets, PFDs), and we’ll match your troop to the appropriate river section based on ages and abilities.
If you have specific concerns (Scouts with medical conditions, varying skill levels, or younger participants) our team is always happy to talk through the details. Call us at 719-966-1570.
Absolutely. Many troops use our rafting trips as part of their Outdoor Adventure or Whitewater merit badge requirements. Let us know your advancement goals when you book, and we can provide documentation and tailor the experience accordingly.
We work with Scouts of all ages and experience levels. Age requirements depend on the trip:
Trip recommendations also depend on current river conditions. If you have a mixed-age troop, we’ll help you choose a trip that works for everyone or discuss options for splitting into different sections.
Scout trips book quickly, especially during summer months and peak season weekends. Advanced reservations are highly recommended, but walk-ins are welcome if space is available. This is not always the case; especially during peak season and on weekends.
We’ll send detailed pre-trip information once you book, but the basics are:
We provide all rafting gear (wetsuits, splash jackets, helmets, PFDs).
Once you submit a quote request, our team will follow up to confirm details, discuss your advancement goals, recommend the best trip options, and answer any questions. There’s no obligation, just helpful guidance from people who’ve worked with Scout troops for decades.
If you’re still unsure, reach out. We’re happy to help.
