I am sure many of the locals know these areas. However this site is quite cool.


It points readers to "swimming holes" has good info, directions and many have Google Map links.

A friend has been telling me about "Black Hole" for 2 yrs. He is not great with directions. I have been searching it out (he never said the name, just a great spot to swim and jump off rocks) when possible. He said the hole was on River Road and you jump into the Hudson. I am guessing he was wrong, and it is Black Hole.
