Looking for an unforgettable outdoor adventure in the Adirondacks? Experience the thrill of whitewater rafting on the Hudson River, one of the top whitewater destinations in the Northeast! An afternoon whitewater rafting trip, a relaxing stay in North River, NY, at Garnet Hill Lodge, and a five-star dinner at the Log House Restaurant is the ideal way to wrap up this years’ rafting season!

Whitewater rafting near North River NY is a unique experience because of how our neighboring water releases function. Regular releases from the Lake Abanakee Dam make whitewater rafting on the Indian River possible. Thanks to the dam releases, rafts can navigate the Hudson River Gorge throughout the summer, as well as during the spring, when water is high, thanks to the snowmelt.
The Hudson River Gorge is the seasonal home to thousands of exciting whitewater adventures. You’ll splash through giant rapids, witness breathtaking foliage at the Blue Ledges, and conquer your fears with a big smile on your face. If you’re looking to explore rafting outfitters, check out these reputable local companies offering trips in the area:
