Every year you get 365 days to explore outdoors.  

How will you spend them?

We're always adding new trips.  Keep updated by e-mail and on Facebook.

We offer a variety of trip types for small group, public trips and private excursions.  Scroll down to learn more.

We’ll keep a moderate pace as we summit each mountain, climb to that epic view, or descend to our swimming spot.  No worries – we’ll still take breaks, and you’ll still hear about the natural and cultural history– but our focus will be on our destination.

For: Goal-oriented hikers

Max group size: 6-8 people, depending on hike location and difficulty

Price: Starts at $49 /person for 3-hour hikes

Visit beautiful places and munch on wild berries seasonally, while learning about the rich cultural and natural history of the region from a local expert.  These slower paced excursions are to be savored for what you will see, touch, (sometimes taste) and learn. 

For: First-timers and locals who’ve passed by a place for years, but never learned the natural and cultural history…or that those little black berries are edible…and delicious!

Max group size: Long Dock Park: 10-12.  Breakneck Ridge: 6-7.

Price: Varies. Starts at 79$ /person for 4-hour Breakneck Ridge Tours

Learn about spring ephemeral wildflowers, ridge-top ecology, geology, or invasive species through our Discover NY series of hikes.  We'll explore wetlands, glacial formations, and much more.  Guests will receive exclusive access to online ecology guides specific to their hike.

For:  Those who’ve ever wished they had a naturalist or scientist with them while hiking—this is your chance!

Max group size: 6-8 people

Price: Starts at $99 /person for 4-hour hikes

*Discounts available when signing up for multiples hikes in the series and for students. Guests may also repeat the same Discover NY hike for half price, pending space availability. Ask for details.

Bring your family, friends, or wedding guests on any of our regularly offered public trips—without the public.

For:  Larger groups, individuals who prefer a more intimate setting, and families seeking shared quality time outdoors

Max group size: Varies, based on location.

Price: Based on the full regularly scheduled public hike price. Discounts for early and mid-week bookings.

Many hikes are readily accessible via Metro North Railroad's Hudson line. *Private transportation may be available from Metro North Railroad stops.  Ask for details.
