There are 3.5 miles of rivers and streams throughout the United States, inviting people to fish, swim, ride a boat or just have a great hangout. Not only are rivers the best place to have fun, but they offer breathtaking views and chill vibes.
Cheapism got curious and found the most stunning rivers in every state after consulting local experts plus state and federal scenic-river designations.
The most beautiful river you can find in Colorado is the Cache La Poudre!
This amazing river not only offers amazing activities, but it's also a National Heritage Area. Plenty of museums and historical attractions are sure to keep you entertained if you're not hitting the waters or nature viewing.
Here's what writers have to say about Cache La Poudre:
"You'll find the headwaters of Colorado's only federally designated Wild and Scenic River high in Rocky Mountain National Park. From there, it tumbles about 7,000 feet through stunning forested canyons until it joins the South Platte River, about 140 miles later. It's a popular spot for campers, anglers, hikers, hunters, and rafters. Wildlife watchers may spy elk, black bears, bighorn sheep, bobcats, mountain lions and the distinctive tassel-eared squirrel."
