River rafting is the most popular pursuit in the area; guides sprinkled throughout the valley cater to all types - from children on their first trip to the extreme whitewater junkie up for Class IV rapids. Mountain biking has become more popular than ever here; a locally produced map to trails will steer you in the right direction.
