Our philosophy is that your experience depends on our experience. As a company, we connect a broad range of experience and specialized training with our instructional team: American Canoe Association certified kayak instructors; naturalists; geologists and artists. Each member of our team provides a unique  view to the beauty and function of the Hudson River Valley.

We offer a broad range of kayaking skills development courses: from the basics to rolling. If you are interested in sightseeing and going places, consider one of our guided Kayak Tours or create a special adventure of your own design.

If you are feeling more terrestrial, give Nordic Walking a try. Nordic Walking is a fabulous way to tour the many regional parks and historic estates in the Hudson River Valley while enjoying the benefits of a full body, low-impact workout.

See you on the water and the trail.
