Some tips and insights on kayaking the waters of the Hudson from local expert Marshall Seddon.

Running, hiking, biking, climbing…the Hudson Valley is home to so many resources for outdoor activities that it will make your head spin. With all the blood-pumping activities to choose from, we often forget about one of the largest (and most obvious) local resources – the Hudson River itself. Though the Hudson’s biggest traffic belongs to the commercial ships and barges that mosey their way down the length of the river, kayakers look to the river as a source of exercise and summertime adventure.
