Biking on railroad tracks in the Adirondacks? You bet!!

Enjoy your ride through the forest on a 2 or 4 seat recumbent bike. A great activity for all ages and ability levels. Distance is approximately 7 miles round trip and takes about 2.5 hours start to finish including the shuttle ride. Very slight uphill grade on the way out but the grade works for you on the way back.

Just before you reach the turnaround the forest opens to a railroad trestle crossing the Hudson River

After a short rest while the bikes are turned around, it’s time to head back.

Time for a photo-op on the trestle.
