What to expect
Experience the majestic Royal Gorge, one of Colorado’s most breathtaking natural wonders, in the most exhilarating way possible! Carved by the Arkansas River over millions of years, this 1,200-foot-deep canyon is home to some of the most awe-inspiring views and thrilling attractions in the state. You'll experience a ride on the Royal Gorge Gondola, where you'll glide high above the canyon floor, taking in unmatched panoramic views of the rugged cliffs and winding river below. Next, kick the adrenaline up a notch with the Royal Gorge Zip Line, soaring over 1,200 feet across the canyon for a once-in-a-lifetime rush. Finally, take on the ultimate test of courage—the Royal Rush Sky Coaster, a giant swing that sends you plunging over the edge of the gorge in a free-fall drop that will take your breath away. The Royal Gorge is the perfect blend of natural beauty, history, and heart-pounding excitement. Please note that the drive to the Royal Gorge from Denver is about 2hr 20min.
