Rail Explorers: A Catskills Fall Foliage Ride
Details
MUST REGISTER HERE TO ATTEND https://joinoutsiders.com/events
Hop aboard for one of the most unique and scenic adventures of the season, a Rail Explorers ride through the heart of the Catskills. Cruise along historic railroad tracks in a custom pedal-powered rail car, soaking in the crisp mountain air and breathtaking early fall views at every turn.
This 2.5-hour guided tour follows the historic Ulster & Delaware Railroad corridor, gliding through golden forests, over old trestle bridges, and alongside the tranquil Esopus Creek. It's part leisurely ride, part light cardio, and all-around fun, no experience required.
