Tour Description

Paddle along the legendary Hudson River and experience the dramatic beauty of the Palisades Cliffs—formed over 200 million years ago by volcanic activity. These towering basalt cliffs rise up to 500 feet above the river, creating one of the most iconic natural landmarks in the Northeast. As you glide along the shoreline, you’ll be surrounded by lush greenery and diverse wildlife tucked into the rocky slopes. We’ll paddle across about a mile of open water, offering panoramic views—including a stunning look at the NYC skyline in the distance. You’ll also hear stories from the Revolutionary War, including General George Washington’s daring retreat through these very cliffs, aided by the legendary Closter Rider. Bring your snacks and drinks, and get ready for a unique blend of nature, history, and adventure.
