Overnight Bikepacking Packages
Everything you need for a 2- or 3-day bike camping adventure
Touring bikes, panniers, tents, sleeping bags available for rent
Pre-planned itineraries use trains and GPS give you an awesome experience!
Most people have no idea about all of the fun places to go bikepacking just outside of NYC.
If you want to try bikepacking, but don’t have your own equipment, Gotham Bicycle Tours can help you with convenient bikepacking packages out of NYC that let you get out of the city into nature for a weekend on a bike!
Everything you need
Gotham Bicycle Tours has rental bicycles that are perfect for overnight bikepacking adventures. All bikes are accessorized for overnight bike tours, with racks to hold your bags. If you don’t have bags, you can rent panniers that work with the bike. See our bike rental page for full details.
In addition we also rent tents, sleeping bags and sleeping pads.
The perfect campsite
You aren’t the only one who wants to go camping this weekend! Are there going to be any campsites available? We partner with Campnab to get you the best site possible, even if you are looking at the last minute. It really works!
Convenient pick-up and return get you out of the city fast
Our Woodlawn Heights location at the edge of the city is very close to the Woodlawn Metro-North Railroad station. You can get off the train, get set up, and back on the next train, heading straight to your bikepacking adventure. (For the return, we can usually board your train and take back the equipment and bikes while the train is moving. You don’t even have to get off! It’s like magic! Maximum convenience!)
We will give you instructions and GPS for where to ride once you get off the train.
Pre-planned itineraries with GPS. No confusion or getting lost.
Not familiar with where to go? Our packages come with pre-planned itineraries that include excellent maps, accurate GPS, train information, and assistance with campground reservations. Check out these options:
Easier - Rudd Pond
Rudd Pond – 13 miles up, 13 miles back
Get on the train after getting your gear and take it up to Wassaic. From there, ride 10 miles on the spectacular Harlem Valley Rail Trail to Millerton, where you can stop and eat or buy supplies for your campout. Then it’s 3 miles on road to Rudd Pond State Park, where you can camp, swim, take out a rowboat and hike.
The next day, just bike back to the Wassaic station in reverse. Then take the train back to the city.

Tour packages start with an initial set-up fee followed by a menu of rental options including bikes and camping gear. The se- up fee pays for the time our staff will spend working out the specific logistics of your experience, customizing GPS files to your trip needs, etc. We will also take the time to personally answer all your questions, discuss things with you over the phone or by text, etc. Bike rental fees for bikepacking packages are lower than our daily rental rates.
