Today, the Black River is served by four experienced whitewater rafting companies that guide visitors through one of the East Coast’s greatest paddling adventures. Much of the action happens right in the city of Watertown, where riverfront parks and scenic walking trails provide up-close views of rafters and daredevil kayakers. Fishing platforms are also available at many city parks. Boat launches, canoe portages, fishing access spots, walking trails and observation decks line the Black River. With so much to offer, the Black River is headed for another heyday, as a recreational paradise. www.blackriverny.com | Call 1-800-847-5263 for a free brochure. 44 1000 Islands International Travel Guide | 800.847.5263 | www.visit1000islands.com
