If you’re in Fulton, NY, and looking for fun summertime activities for the entire family, there are plenty of options right here in town. Below, we share our favorite suggestions for your next summer activity, whether you’re looking to fill an evening or make a lengthier getaway.
1. Indian Point
Indian Point is a beautiful public park on the Eastern shore of the Oswego River. There are two gazebos and multiple tables that visitors can use for picnic lunches, while the boardwalk is great for relaxing and people-watching. The Oswego River Pathfinder Trail runs 2.5 miles from Indian Point to downtown Fulton, offering majestic views of the river along the way.
2. Fulton Speedway
The Fulton Speedway is home to a 3/8-mile oval track with races held every Saturday night. Warm summer evenings are perfect for action-packed events like monster truck rallies, demolition derbies, and a wide variety of races.
Because the track was built in a natural bowl, you’ll have a great view of the action from the hillside stands. Visitors love the value of the Speedway’s offerings and the sense of community among those who attend; you might go for a race and make new friends along the way.
3. Thunder Island Event Center
The Thunder Island Event Center is jam-packed with fun activities for your entire family — so much so that they may not want to leave! The event center includes miniature golf, go-karts, ziplining, and a clubhouse with arcade games and ice cream.
Make sure to pack your swimsuits and sunscreen for the waterpark. If you’re feeling brave, try the Thunder Rush Extreme Body Slide, which includes an 87-foot slide into a large bowl that eventually leads to an 8-foot pool. If you’d rather take it easy, try the relaxing version of the Black Water Tunnel Twister, which allows visitors of all swimming abilities to take a mellow 380-foot ride on a translucent slide.
4. North Bay Campgrounds
Sitting on the northern shore of Lake Neatahwanta, the North Bay Campgrounds are conveniently located to help you get away from the demands of modern life without losing out on convenience. Take a short hike to Bullhead Point to fish off the pier, get dinner, or even watch a free concert at the pavilion.
Plan to take a canoe out on the lake and explore the surrounding scenery knowing that with your spacious Dodge Durango, you’ll have plenty of room for the entire family’s camping gear.
Whether your loading up your gear for an excursion into the wilderness or taking the family for a picnic on the river’s edge, you’ll need a comfortable, reliable vehicle to get you there. Stop by Longley Bros and our friendly team will help you find your perfect fit.
