The North Creek Mosaic Project

A Community Wide Art Participation Program!

Kate Hartley and son Clayton

The North Creek Mosaic Project

Artist Kate Hartley saw the large concrete wall on Main Street in North Creek as the perfect canvas for a very unique, very large-scale art project. Fast forward to today, and slowly, but surely, beautifully colored tiles and stones are advancing down Main Street in North Creek. They’re taking the shape of a raging river, tree-covered mountains, and a shining sun, highlighting the activities that make the region special, like whitewater rafting, skiing, and fishing. What was once a 180-foot stretch of bland, concrete wall is being transformed into “one of the largest pieces of public art in the North Country” thanks to the efforts and vision of Hartley and over 700 volunteers.

Revolution Rail Bike Tours!

Along the Upper Hudson River - 2 Routes!

Revolution Rail – Rail Bike Tours – 2 Trips in North Creek!

Revolution Rail - Rail Bike ToursWhat is Railbiking?
Railbiking with Revolution Rail Co. is a fun excursion activity that allows riders to ride the railroad tracks under their own power and explore a section of the Adirondacks that has never seen passenger traffic.
Once railbikers check in at the historic North Creek Railroad Station, they’ll take a short shuttle ride 5 miles north of town to the tour launch point. After a short safety briefing, the tour guides will lead the railbikers further north on a 6 mile round trip cruise.

New, the South River Run takes riders south right out of the North Creek Railroad Station for a 9 mile out-and-back trip. Riders on the South River Run enjoy varied rolling terrain, hug the Hudson River shoreline for large sections of the ride, and enjoy a number of incredible vistas of the Hudson River.
 Additional trips in Thurman/Stony Creek and Hadley – info on the website, link below.
