Step foot onto Pollepel Island to visit the famous Bannerman Castle! Begin your adventure by taking a leisurely paddle across the Hudson River before arriving at Wee-bay. We then make our way up from the shore on the walking trails. A Bannerman Castle Historian then directs a tour along the walkways of the island alongside the former arsenal and residence. This tour is best for those who enjoy learning about our local history. Light hiking and many stairs are apart of this tour. Round trip paddling distance of approximately 2.5 miles. 

As part of our ongoing collaboration with the Bannerman Castle Trust, these tours help contribute to their preservation efforts of the site.
