Seventeen miles from the Indian River into the Hudson Gorge. Big waves, wilderness scenery and a freshly prepared riverside lunch.
A five-mile Class I float for a different pace on the river. Check the calendar, then confirm the details for your crew.
Warm summer water and mostly Class III rapids. The Hudson can suit families; age and river conditions come first.
Go past the day-trip rhythm. Two, three or four days of rafting, river camps and guide-prepared meals.
Ask about “duckies” on a suitable overnight route. A possible paddling option, not a separately listed daily trip.
We know the rapids. We also know when to stop for lunch, which layers make a cold day comfortable and how to help your crew paddle together.
Meet your local outfitterNew York State licensed guides lead the way. Owners Nate and Becky Pelton have spent more than two decades guiding Adirondack rivers.
The Gorge day trip includes a freshly prepared river lunch. Between the waves, there’s time to take in the forest, ledges and river bends.
We keep trips small. Ask about a private raft, talk through your group’s needs and get clear advice before you book.
Start with three miles of Indian River whitewater, then paddle into the Hudson. The Gorge drops 650 feet through wild Adirondack country, with Class III–IV rapids and a lunch stop on shore.
Same Gorge. Different character. Water levels change the pace, the rapids and which guests a trip is suited to.
Find your seasonCold water and the season’s highest flows. Mostly Class IV whitewater; confirm experience and age requirements before reserving.
