What to bring
Bring your binoculars and cameras. In cooler weather, make sure to bring a warm coat or windbreaker.
I am curious, are you handicap accessible? Do you have a ramp to wheel a wheelchair on and off boat.
HI Kathy! We do! But please give us a call for more information.
I am unable to make reservations either by clicking on the “Book Now” or by calling the number above. How can I make reservations to book a river cruise for my grandsons and myself?
Hi Anne, We checked the link and it is correct, it brings you to a page to select a date. If you are still having trouble, please email us at fran@worcestercentralkidscalendar and we will get someone from Northfield Mountain to help you.
