About this Event

We're headed to Cold Spring, NY for a day on the trail.

It's the perfect escape from the hustle of the city: time to slow down, breath deeper, explore nature, and connect with friends (old or new). Outside is better with your people.

This hike features superb views of the Hudson Valley, fascinating rock formations, and a little bit of history along the trail. We'll cover ~5 mile at a moderate pace, stopping along the way to take it all in and grab some quick flicks.

Every step is led by NYSDEC licensed guide Kestrel Ambrose.

After the trail, choose your own adventure: Cold Spring village is ours to explore. Food, good company, even more vibes. Or, an early train back to the city. Your choice. No rush.

Please be sure to complete our digital waiver . Once you are registered AND submit your waiver, you'll receive an email with all the info you need to prep for this adventure.
