Railbiking in the ADK.

Take a thrilling railbike trip with Revolution Rail Co., where you can take charge and ride original Adirondack railroad tracks. This is an excellent opportunity to discover the region’s hidden gems untouched by passenger traffic.

Begin your adventure at the iconic North Creek Railroad Station, where you'll be transported 5 miles north to the tour launch point. After a quick safety briefing, knowledgeable guides will lead you on a 6-mile round-trip journey to uncover the beauty of the Adirondacks.

Revolution Rail offers several different tours in the area. Each run is different, but as long as one person can pedal the bike, anyone of any age or ability can join on the ride.

Revolution Rail tours are best enjoyed leisurely, allowing travelers to take in their surroundings.

There is no minimum (or maximum) age limit. However, lap riding is not allowed as it is unsafe. Children under 15 must ride with an adult on the same railbike. See Revolution Rail’s website for more information.
