Hop in one of our top of the line, hard-shell or inflatable kayaks and cruise down the scenic Verde River. These boats feature a sit-on-top design that makes them comfortable, stable, and most of all, safe. Kayaking the Verde River @ Clarkdale is an absolute blast! It's a fun, interactive experience where you get to cool off and learn about the unique history of the Verde River.
