We had a terrific experience at Adirondack Rail Bike Adventures. The bikes were thoroughly sanitized between uses which made us feel safe. The employees were friendly and helpful from check-in until our ride was complete. The 6 mile ride was just the right length for our family, it was just over 1.5 hours. There is a break at the halfway mark to stretch your legs while they turn the bike around for you to return to the departure station. I have no hesitation recommending Adirondack Rail Bike!
– Jo-Ann H. | FacebookVery nice ride. I took the family up and it was a fun two hours. Sometimes we rode hard and sometimes we relaxed. The Adirondack mountains in the backdrop is cool. We’re already planning for a return trip.
– Paco V. | FacebookWasn’t sure what to expect when we booked the trip. Had a great time and enjoyed every second. Definitely got a bit of a workout. Staff was great, very pleasant and engaging even when we showed up an hour early. Fantastic experience will definitely recommend to friends and family. Hope this stays around for a long time!
– Mike H. | FacebookIf you've spent more than 5 seconds looking at the ADK rail bikes thinking "looks neat..." DO IT! It IS neat. Beautiful, interesting, and fun! Gets the blood pumping without being overly exertive. 10/10 will do again.
– Jenn K. | FacebookThe ease of use, the ability to get out into parts of the DAKs that can only be seen from the railroad right of way. It's quiet and the beauty of the region is really spectacular.
– Bob H. | FacebookWe rode from Thendara to Carter station in just the 3rd week of operation. We had 9 people in our party ranging in age from 19 mos to 71 yrs. Every single one of us had a blast. The gorgeous views and a unique way of seeing them are unmatched. The staff were friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we had a terrific time. We will be coming back for sure. Thank you for bringing this experience closer to home!
