Discover Lenape History Aboard Solaris
Step aboard Solaris for a meaningful journey into Hudson Valley history. This solar powered boat carries guests along the Hudson River while exploring the longstanding relationship between the Lenape People and the river and its tributaries.
Led by ethnoecologist Justin Wexler, the experience offers insights into the everyday lives, traditions, and connections of local Native Peoples centuries ago. His extensive study of Hudson Valley Indigenous culture, languages, and history brings valuable context to the journey.
The cruise lasts approximately one hour and fifteen minutes and departs from 50 Rondout Landing in Kingston, New York. Guests can enjoy a quiet ride aboard Solaris while learning about Indigenous heritage and the landscapes that shaped local communities.
Guests should arrive fifteen to thirty minutes early for check in and parking. The boat requires guests to navigate a gravel path, elevated gangways, and three steps when boarding, so it is not wheelchair or stroller accessible. Dressing appropriately for cooler conditions on the water is recommended.
