New York Canoeing and Kayaking

New York is home to some of the greatest waterways on the East Coast. Team up with professional guides at Sacandaga Outdoor Center to enjoy tubing, rafting, and kayaking on the Hudson and Saranac Rivers. Just minutes from Lake George, this family-friendly outfitter is great for groups and for introducing the kids to the outdoors.

For guided kayaking with groups, check out Adventure Calls Outfitters in Western New York or Beaver Brook Outfitters' 17 miles of class IV whitewater rapids on the Hudson River Gorge. If you're looking for an adrenaline rush, Hanging Spear Falls in the Adirondacks—where professionally trained kayakers brave the rapids—​is the steepest mile of whitewater in the state.

Blending nature's beauty and storytelling, Hudson River Recreation's Sleepy Hollow Sunset Tour draws you into the history of this legendary town with exciting guided tours and amazing views of the Palisades, Croton Point, and Tarrytown Lighthouse.
