Pinnacle Rock is a popular put-in access site for whitewater rafting on the Arkansas River, located approximately 21 miles west of Cañon City on Highway 50.

The site features a boat ramp/slide, changing facilities, restrooms, and camping, making it an ideal starting point for the scenic 20-mile run through Bighorn Sheep Canyon and the Royal Gorge with Class II-IV rapids.

A day-use fee is required, and the site provides access to excellent wildlife viewing opportunities including bighorn sheep herds along the river.
