Venture Out of the City for the Day!
Established in 1982 as a day-hiking company, Outdoor Bound continues, 26 years later, to offer New Yorkers the best local hikes as well as a range of other adventures. Just throw the essentials in your daypack and we’ll make sure you get safely out of the city and into some of the most beautiful adventure locations throughout New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut.
Studies have shown that the best way to create new friendships is to share an experience that gets your adrenaline flowing. From rafting a Class V river to horseback riding a backwoods trail, our day trips aim to do just that. Regardless of which adventure you choose, the foliage, wildlife and breathtaking views will make you feel as if you are hundreds of miles away from the city.
