There are so many things to do in the Big Bend! An adventure that you just can’t miss is Far Flung’s One Day Canyon Float on the Rio Grande.
Whether it’s the limestone walls of Santa Elena Canyonor the volcanic history of Colorado Canyon, a day on the river in Big Bend is better than any day at work!
Stop the presses! Given our current drought conditions, we are currently floating the Hot Springs canyon section of the Rio Grande. Located on the east side of Big Bend National Park, this day trip offers a soak in the natural hot spring, a short walk and some great paddling. Not bad for a winter trip!
You’ll have the opportunity to float, paddle, hike, explore or just plain relax as the Far Flung staff handles all of the trip details – including a river lunch that will knock your socks off!
For over 35 years, we have taken thousands of guests into the canyon wilds of Big Bend National Park and Big Bend Ranch State Park. Call us today and join the ranks of past canyoneers!
