Paddle School

Here at 4Corners Paddle School, we have been dedicated to sharing our passion for river with as many people as possible since we began offering classes in the 1980’s! We strive to instill a lifelong love of paddling in all of our students. To do this, we offer classes for beginners, advanced and everything in between. Our classes are taught by qualified, competent ACA instructors with years of experience under their belts, and a commitment to sharing their love of the water. All of our classes are taught on the Animas river, which runs right through the heart of Durango, CO and right behind 4 Corners. The Animas provides a unique classroom setting that can be appropriate for paddlers of any skill level. 4Corners is also positioned less than a mile from the whitewater park allowing for shorter shuttles, and even more time on the water! So, come join us for a class, and find your passion for the river!
