Enjoy a day of adventures you won't find at any other single location in the Adirondacks at the Ausable Chasm. There's hiking, rock climbing, rappelling, and whitewater rafting for the adrenaline junkies or floating down the river for those just looking to relax. There's even a campground where you can spend the night and do it all again the next day.

Float tours are very popular so you're advised to arrive as early in the day as possible to avoid waiting. Reservations aren't available, so you may have to wait 30 minutes or more after 12 PM. Get details at Ausablechasm.com.

Hudson River & Private Island

The Adirondack Adventure Center is expanding for the 15th season after owner Dane Morton purchased 165 acres of land along the beautiful Buttermilk section of the Hudson River. It will be used as a private access point for the Lazy River Tubing trips that include a stop at the private island.

Daily trips will go from 4 every 90 minutes to 6 every 60 minutes. And there will be a private access point to the river to allow everyone to get on the water faster.
