2-Day Hoover Dam Kayaking and Camping Tour with 6 Hot Springs

Overview

Day by day itinerary

1. 1Hoover Dam Launch in Kayaks to Boyscout Canyon, Sauna Cave, AZ Hot Springs, Infinity Falls, and Emerald Cave⌄

   We are one of the few Outfitters approved to take you to the base of the base of the awe-inspiring Hoover Dam. This is not the 81 Hoover Dam Access Road, this is the restricted road we need passes through the National Park Service to Access. There are restricted passes and guests do need to go through an approved outfitter like us to launch in kayaks from the base of the Hoover Dam. We see Sauna Cave, Goldstrike Waterfalls, Melt Your Shoes Hot Springs, Arizona Hot Springs, Boyscout Slot Canyon, and the Emerald Cave.

   We hike up from the river and up a large ladder through a waterfall to get to the world-famous Arizona Hot Springs. Optional Hot Spring Yoga. Soak in the medicinal benefits of the Geothermal Hot Springs that are still carving out this canyon.

   Boyscout Slot Canyon: Technically, this area is part of the Grand Canyon. And in our humble opinion, the absolute best part is BOYSCOUT CANYON: Unless you’ve got rappelling gear and a rope the length of a football field, this is by far the safest and easiest way to experience thousands of feet of geothermal waterfalls and endless rain caves.

   We will spend only a small amount of the 30 hours we spend ion the river kayaking but it is 11 miles down river. We can leave with the flow of the Hoover Dam letting out water in the morning to propel us back faster or enjoy more time soaking in the medicinal hot springs. We kayak the Colorado River with back door access to Goldstrike Hot Springs, Sauna Cave, Infinity Hot Springs, and Boyscout Canyon. We will see dozens of rain caves, bird watch, and often see Big Horn Sheep while floating and paddling down river. It is a nice workout but an absolute doable one.

   Sauna Cave: We go inside a Lave Tube like 140 foot deep and 140 degree natural Steam Room. We take it back and enjoy a minute of silence if guests agree to set our intentions for the trip.

   Goldstrike Canyon and hot springs and geothermal waterfalls with springs that get up to 120 degrees.

   We have more time to hike and snap EPIC pictures above Infinity Hot Springs, Paradot Cave, and Paradise Falls.

   Meals: Lunch: Excellent Lunch · Dinner: Five Course Cooked/Warmed over the campfire. Guide will prepare an excellent dinner. · Breakfast: 3 Course Breakfast

   Overnight: Tents, Sleeping bags, and chairs. We will bring plates and utensils—you sit back, relax, and enjoy. We bring everything

2. 2Kayak with the Flow of the 86,000 gallons per second released from the Hoover Dam to Paradot Cave and Emerald Cove⌄

   Optional: stop at the Hot Springs to soak in the medicinal benefits one last time before the kayaking trip back to Willow Beach.

   Paddle back with extra time and no rush to Emerald Cave and Willow Beach Marina to end this epic trip. A lot of times we're rushed to get to get the Emerald Cave on our full day trip but we will have time to make it with good lighting.
