Our First Meetup: Let’s Go Kayaking in Newburgh

Welcome to our new group and to our first Meetup!

As the summer of '25 is starting to wind down ... let's get outside and go kayaking with Mountain Valley Guides. NO EXPERIENCE NEEDED. Their guides will have you paddling in minutes. Gear, kayak, guides and instruction are all included in the price.

About the Tour: Leaving from the Newburgh Waterfront this 2 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.

Price: $50.00 per person
