Your adventure will begin at Pride’s Landing in Newburgh, NY, and your captain will narrate the sights along the way, including:
- Washington’s Headquarters – established as a historic site in 1850 because George Washington spent so much time here during the Revolutionary War!
- Mount Beacon – the highest point between the Catskills and the Atlantic Ocean. Beacon fires were built here during the Revolutionary War.
- Bannerman Island – this historic Island is known for its warehouse, which was built to resemble a Scottish castle.
- Breakneck Mountain – legend states that the mountain was named after a farmer’s bull that fell down a cliff and broke its neck. A granite quarry at its base supplied material for the Brooklyn Bridge towers, the Statue of Liberty base, and sidewalks in New York City.
- Cold Spring – a quaint town known for its restaurants and antiques.
- World’s End – the deepest point of the Hudson River. Explorers believed that the river stopped there but eventually realized that after the sharp “S” bend, it continued
