Iconic scenic drive, amazing views and incredible experience. Drops you into Port Jervis where you can tour a smoked fish factory or grab a burger at the Creamery.

Such a beautiful ride through the twisting mountains. We do this trip almost every weekend on our motorcycle. Along the way you will find a couple of places to stop and eat. Best time of year is the fall. Keep your eyes up (those that are not driving) as you are bound to see an bald eagle or two

If beautiful drives are your thing there is actually the Upper Delaware Scenic Byway. You can take this alternate route on the way to the farmhouse or on the way home and stop at The Hawks Nest for great views and hawks abound of course.
