  • Calling all history buffs! On this three-mile guided hike, experience the historical importance of Bear Mountain as you trek along the 1777 Trail — a trail that dates back almost 250 years. After the hike and taking in the sites of the Hudson Valley, you and your group will be treated to a farm-to-table lunch at the Bear Mountain Inn, followed by a private tour of West Point, farther north up the Hudson.

    • 57hours is committed to providing safe outdoor adventure experiences. We require all guides using our platform to have a COVID-19 safety plan and to make the details of that plan accessible to travelers. In most cases, group sizes will be reduced, guides will avoid overcrowded locations, and other safety measures will be met depending on the location and activity.

      We also expect clients to respect local regulations and take measures to protect themselves, guides and the communities they’re travelling to. For more information on COVID-19 measures in New York please refer to the New York State website.

      Please contact us if you have any questions or require further information. We are happy to provide you with the most up-to-date information!

    • This historic Bear Mountain State Park hike is for beginners and family-friendly. You need to be able to hike for around three miles over three hours with little elevation gain.

      • Water bottle or hydration pack
      • Hiking shoes or boots and proper hiking socks
      • Spare clothes for layering
      • Toiletries (sunscreen, insect repellent, hand sanitizer, toilet paper, etc.)

    • Hiring a local guide offers you the chance to experience Bear Mountain’s beauty to the fullest. Local guides know all the hidden gems the area has to offer, will explain the history and geology during the historic hiking tour, and will transport you to and from the destination. And, if something unpredictable happens, your guide will know just what to do if the weather takes a turn or something unexpected happens.

    • With us, it’s all play and no work for you! 57hours is an open platform that connects you with trained and certified outdoor adventure professionals all over the world. Using our tech-savvy, we make it super easy to find and book adventures worth tackling, with guides worth booking, all gathered from the first-hand experiences of the locals who adventure in these amazing locations.

    • This hiking tour is for private individuals and groups only. Group size is between 6-11 people with one guide. Pricing is per person. If you’re travelling with more or less people, please contact us prior to booking for pricing info and to make arrangements.

    • Everybody is welcome on this hiking adventure. If you plan to hike with minors, please contact us prior to booking to make arrangements.

    • Tours are scheduled to fit with the seasons and ideal hiking conditions. When the weather does not cooperate, your guide will know the correct course of action to take. Whether that’s shifting to a more favorable location or postponing until conditions approve, your guide will know just what to do. In the event of predictably bad weather, you will be contacted prior to the trip to discuss suitable alternatives.

    • It’s highly recommended that you cover all your bases with travel and medical insurance. While hiking might seem like a low-risk outdoor activity, accidents can happen anywhere and we recommend insurance to avoid paying out of pocket for costly medical expenses. And as we’ve recently seen, travel plans can be abruptly halted, so it’s a good idea to have cancellation insurance that also covers lost baggage. It’s tried and tested and it works.

    • With 57hours, you benefit from both our own cancellation policy as well as that of the individual guiding service that delivers your adventure. All policies regarding cancellation will be clearly laid out by your guide after booking your adventure, but rest assured that our own cancellation policy will work on top of what is provided by your guide.
