HUDSON RIVER RAFTING
A magnificent wilderness experience in the Adirondack Mountains of New York State, the Hudson River is Class III-IV+, adrenaline-pumping excitement.

This is the Hudson River as she used to be … crystal clear, clean, alive and powerful, as her unbridled whitewater thunders alongside 500-foot granite cliffs, and through awesome rapids like Givneys’ Rift, the Narrows, Little Nasty and Greyhound Bus Stopper. The Hudson River’s whitewater is most powerful in the spring and fall; rafting is somewhat more moderate in mid-summer. Scheduled whitewater dam releases assure terrific rafting fun all season long. Whitewater rafting releases from Lake Abanakee add extra water to the Hudson River even during our high adventure Spring season, making this a favorite rafting destination even for whitewater pros.

Essential Coronavirus Practices & Procedures:
We’re thrilled to be accepting reservations, and excited to welcome all our guests back for 2020. We take your safety as seriously as ever. As such, we’ll be implementing a number of precautions to protect you and to protect ourselves. It’s important that all of us do our part to respect each other’s safety and well-being.
To that end, we’ll be providing non-touch temperature checks for our staff and for our guests every day. We’ll be wearing face masks to protect you, and we’ll be requiring that you wear face masks (except while in the raft) to protect us. For everyone’s safety, we won’t be able to allow onto our grounds anyone who is not wearing a face mask. We would also insist that you please practice social distancing at all times.
Rafting teams will be the same as reservation groupings. Reservation groups of 4, 5, or 6 will have their own raft. Groups of 8 or more will split into smaller groups of 4 or more. For your safety, no one will be allowed to pair up with participants from outside their reservation group. Unfortunately, this means that groups of 1, 2 or 3 won’t be able to go rafting just yet. Hopefully, that will change before the end of the season.
For the time being, meal service will be limited to pre-packaged items, individually wrapped lunches, and a limited number of prepared (hot) snack bar items. In order to minimize attendance, camping sites will be restricted to use by our rafting and biking guests, and alternate-site-spacing will be used to help maintain distancing.
When it’s time to head to the river, be prepared to board our shuttle bus with your reservation group, where you may sit alongside the group you arrived with. Other rafting parties on the bus will be separated from your party by empty seat rows.
It seems like the world is chock-full of rules, rules, rules these days. We hate to have to be piling on more rules, but let’s help each other to make the best of it and remember why we’re here – to reconnect with one of the most beautiful, pristine, fun-filled places on earth.
