Let's
Have Some Fun!!!
Learn
to Kayak :) Northeast
PA Kayak School is only blocks away.
If you like the water and want to try
something new, we highly recommend this
experience. Jerry and his staff are outstanding teachers
- knowledgeable, enthusiastic, patient, and most of all
trustworthy. By the end of the class, you'll be singing Beach
Boys songs while surfing on the Lehigh River!
Go Mountain Biking
:)) Jim Thorpe mountain biking is
some of the best on the east coast. Rod and Jen are both
avid cyclists and would be more than happy to help you with
making some of your biking plans. However, if you need
to purchase or rent any equipment for biking, or would like to
arrange a shuttle service for the longer rail trails in the
area, we recommend you contact Blue
Mountain Sports or Adventure
Central.
Whitewater Rafting !! Pocono
Whitewater offers spring and fall whitewater
rafting. In the summer, there are family style float
trips. You can have up to six people in your raft or
rent a sit on top style kayak for lots of action. Pocono
Whitewater's trips include lunch and are guided by trained
staff.
Fishing <> The
Lehigh River is a fantastic place to fish. Check out the
Lehigh
Gap Outfitters to do some guided drift boat
fishing. Other excellent fishing spots include Mauch
Chunk County Lake Park, Beltzville State Park and the local
spots including the Lehigh Canal and the Pohopoco Creek.
Skiing >> Cross-country
skiing can be found right outside our front door on the
towpath. There are also miles of rail trails and hiking trails
nearby. Equipment rentals are available at Blue
Mountain Sports or Mauch Chunk County Lake
Park. If you prefer downhill skiing, we are only twenty
minutes from Blue
Mountain Ski Resort and thirty-five minutes
from Big Boulder
Ski Resort.
