3 Day Fishing Trip on the Rio Chama
Duration 3 Days
Departs from: Santa Fe
Winding through the heart of Northern New Mexico, the Rio Chama is one of this states real treasures. Designated one of America's ''Wild and Scenic Rivers'', the Chama is a wonderful river adventure.
Since 1987, Santa Fe Rafting has safely guided thousands down the Rio Grande. Our boatyard is conveniently located in the center of Santa Fe on Cerrillos Road where we have plenty of free, secure parking.
Description
You will have plenty of time for drifting and swimming during the day, as well as hiking some of the many side trails. The camping is exceptional on the Chama, with most sites nestled among large trees and featuring wonderful views of the sandstone cliffs which line the river.
The Chama is a favorite among New Mexico fishermen; remember to bring your pole and a current fishing license. All meals are provided during the trip. Since the Rio Chama is a permitted river and flow is regulated by El Vado Dam, there are only specific dates on which it is runnable.

What to Wear
From mid June to the end of the season air temperatures are usually above 80 degrees and the water feels great. Dress like you're going to the beach. Wear a T-shirt, swimsuit or running shorts, sandals or sneakers, hat, sunglasses (optional) and sunscreen (strongly encouraged). All of this material is available at the SFR Store.
During the spring when the water is highest due to snow melting off the various 12 to 13 thousand foot peaks feeding the Rio Grande River air and water temperature can be considerably lower. At this time of year make an effort to dress a bit more warmly. We have found that synthetic fabrics that do not absorb much water are the best solution. Synthetic base layers like you use in skiing are great. A warm hat is a good idea as well.
