Rawah is gloriously far from everything. That is the point of going, and the reason to let us do the driving.
Denver International to Glendevey
Rawah Ranch sits at 8,400 feet on the Big Laramie River near Glendevey, just south of the Wyoming border, bordering the Rawah Wilderness. From Denver International it is about 190 miles, up through Fort Collins and the beautiful Poudre Canyon into the Laramie River Valley, roughly three and a half hours. There is no shuttle service out here and cell coverage fades in the canyon. A private transfer with a driver who knows the route means you nap, take in the scenery, and step out at the lodge.
Why guests make this trip
Rawah is a classic all inclusive guest ranch with a serious fly fishing reputation: private water on the Laramie River, guided horseback rides into the Rawah Wilderness, and the kind of quiet you cannot get anywhere near a highway. Stays are typically week long and start on a set arrival day, so most guests fly into Denver International and need exactly this one ride, out and back. That is what we do.
Built for the long ride
Nearly four hours each way calls for a comfortable vehicle, and that is our specialty: luxury SUVs and Sprinter vans with room for rods, boots, and a week of gear. One fixed price, a professional chauffeur, a grocery or lunch stop in Fort Collins if you like, and a scheduled return so you make your flight home with time to spare. Traveling with kids? We install CPS certified car seats. We also serve C Lazy U, Drowsy Water, and Devils Thumb.
