    Very relaxing, and not AS much work and push needed from what I assumed, the scenery was beautiful and kept clean. I highly recommend if you want to come with friends or family, but make sure you dress appropriately with sneakers and shorts or leggings!! The instructors were fantastic and very nice, and were willing to take pictures for you if asked!

    We had an incredible time at North Creek with Revolution Rail Co. We had an issue with our reservation. I emailed their info account and Stephanie helped me fix it right away. Once we arrived we met our guides and went on our adventure. We had some time built in for a little picnic/snack break before returning. We got a gorgeous day! Perfect for end of summer/ early fall. 💯 recommend it!

    This past weekend my family and I attended the Revolution Rail North Creek attraction. The staff is very nice and friendly. The scenic view is awesome. Our group had people of all ages and even though at times it was definitely a workout it was enjoyed by all! Really fun experience with an awesome bridge over the Hudson and great scenery. Definitely would recommend.

    My family (2 adults & 2 children, 12 & 15 yo) had a great time on our ride up the North Bridge Run. The ride is mostly shaded through the woods and the view from the bridge is incredible! Learning some of the history of the rail while at the turnaround point was an added bonus.

    Such a treat in North Creek! Helpful staff made the trip very easy. Four seater peddled by 3 people and it was easy. There were great views of the Hudson River & forest. Families with small kids, they have harnesses to strap in the kids. All other passengers have a lap belt. Some picnic tables at the half way point. If you're the first cart, you'll have time for a very quick snack.
