About Us

 Welcome to A1 Wildwater! Since 1982 we have been providing exciting quality rafting adventures on the Cache La Poudre River west of Ft. Collins, Colorado. The original owners are still having fun and 2022 will be our 40thyear providing quality rafting adventures for first time adventurers, families, and seasoned veterans. So get out of that chair and get outside with us to experience a beautiful canyon, some exciting whitewater and a whole bunch of fun!

The Cache La Poudre River was first identified by French trappers in the early 18th century and for thousands of years before that Indians lived and hunted along the River know today as the “Poudre” (Poo-der). The Poudre was designated a National Wild & Scenic River in 1986 and is still Colorado’s only nationally designated Wild & Scenic River. This honor was granted by Congress for Rivers that are still running wild & free and exhibit exceptional scenic beauty. On its way from the snow covered peaks of the Rockies, the Poudre courses through deep forested canyons with rapids rated from mild to wild until its arrival at the Great Plains. It would be our sincere privilege to have you as our guest and show you the wonders of this national jewel.

” These guys and gals do a great job of showing everyone a great time. The river guides are well trained and react professionally when it is called for, but they also love to have fun and it shows in all they do. Very fun and entertaining day. If you’ve never rafted, these people will take great care to make sure you enjoy your first trip. If your an old hand at rafting, give these guys a chance to wow you. ”

” First time rafting and was not disappointed! Had a family group of 9 (including a 7 yo), so we had to split into 2 rafts, but we were close enough to interact with our family several times. Kumar was our guide and was outstanding! Highly recommend A1! ”

” My husband and I had never tagged before. We had a GREAT time. Our guide Hunter really explained things well and we felt prepared before big rapids approached. The bathroom/changing rooms were very clean! We will definitely be back! ”
