Leaving from the Newburgh Waterfront this 2.5 – 3.5 hour tour will head east across the Hudson River to Denning’s Point just south of the City of Beacon. Our paddle will turn south as we paddle around the south end and make our way up into Fishkill Creek . This is the Hudson River “back country”, a calm peaceful stretch of water full of birds including bald eagles. Our paddle continues up to a beautiful waterfalls where we will take sometime just to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Bring plenty of drinking water along with snacks and “cold beverages” to enjoy in this unique location. Although we schedule this trip when the tides are in our favor, paddling back can sometimes be difficult for first time kayakers or those not in regular shape for activity. We will, of course, have our guides and river guides helping us out! Join us for this beautiful trip!
No prior experience necessary, but if you have never paddled expect the trip to feel like an INTERMEDIATE-level trip.
