Eben G Fine Park to CU Greenhouse section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
CLASS II-III 3 miles
The average Colorado whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit harder to master than those in other states, so better not forget that many runs in this state are not easy. This section of Boulder Creek in Colorado is 3 miles long and has been determined by American Whitewater to be a class II-III section. The nature scenery of Colorado and the cool fresh water beats anything. This river system is full of great paddling stretches, the Eben G Fine Park to CU Greenhouse stretch is just one of them. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking
or both, doesn't matter, there are lots of good rivers for that around here. Lodging is available near the river, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. This is a bit of a short stretch so better bring some good walking shoes. The river winds through
the Front Range and you get great scenery. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. A good workout and just hanging out with mother nature are sure to keep you coming back for more. If you're coming from Boulder it's not a long drive at all to the put-in location, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that.
