The Upper Delaware Scenic and Recreational River stretches 73.4 miles along the New York-Pennsylvania border. The longest and one of the cleanest free-flowing rivers in the eastern United States, the Upper Delaware features riffles and Class I and II rapids interspersed with pools and eddies.
While most of the land along the river is privately owned, there is ample opportunity for canoeing, kayaking, rafting, tubing, fishing, and eagle watching.
Villages, historic buildings, remnants of a once-busy canal, the nation’s oldest existing wire cable suspension bridge and the home of author Zane Grey are some of the river valley’s highlights.
Upper Delaware Scenic and Recreational River is a partnership of individuals, private landowners and local, state, and federal government agencies who work to protect the river, its environment and the communities in the valley.
