Rio Chama 3 Day Trip

The Rio Chama is a benchmark for great western float trips. This family friendly river has some of the best camping and river wilderness found in the southwest. You will enjoy three days of solitude and incredible wilderness. The trip begins in alpine woodlands as a clear, rushing trout stream and ends at the head of Abiquiu Reservoir as a silty desert river, rolling among the rainbow-colored cliffs the Georgia O’Keeffe country.Lovely, wooded campsites and lively,easy rapids make the Chama one of the best river outings anywhere.This trip is available with Live Music,Gourmet Cuisine, and Yoga instruction.

Get ready to pitch a tent, sling a hammock, throw down a pad, and relax! Every day we will prepare and serve you a delicious riverside lunch, not limited to, but often including an array of home-roasted sandwich meats and homemade dips and salsas (see some of our recipes here). In addition, our camp dinners and breakfasts are a classic staple of the Far Flung experience, as 40 years in business has not only taught us the principles of reading white-water…but also of cooking and camp ambiance!

Paddle boat, oar boat, individual or two-man inflatable kayak, and Stand Up Paddleboard are all options.

We welcome first-time rafters 6 years of age and older. You should be in normal, good health and prepared for the mild exertions of paddling, camping and possible swimming.

Please let us know ahead of time about any allergies or special food requirements
