Hudson Gorge Put-in provides access to the Indian River below Lake Abanakee, serving as the starting point for paddling the remote Hudson River Gorge—a 15. 3-mile Class III-IV whitewater run.

Water releases occur Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday between May and September, with parking available at the established access area.

This location is critical for accessing the Narrows and other challenging rapids downstream, though paddlers should note that once on the Hudson, there is limited egress until the North River takeout, making a strong roll and proper safety gear mandatory.
