Whether you carry a shopping bag, a fishing rod or a camera, you will find a visit to the river town of Lambertville an adventure to remember.
Discover a piece of the past in one of a dozen antique shops, markets and auction houses or purchase a unique keepsake handcrafted by local artists in one of the art galleries along Bridge and Union Streets. Explore the layers of the historic village - stand where George Washington camped during the Revolutionary war, walk the path of the Delaware and Raritan Canal, enjoy the picturesque Victorian mansions, or visit the historic 18th century Holcombe Jimison Farmstead. Ride the gentle rapids of the Delaware river by kayak, canoe or inner-tube, wade in along the banks and cast for shad, or capture a heron in mid flight with a click of your camera. |
Try a pint of locally brewed beer, a cup of joe made with freshly roasted coffee beans, a sampling of hand crafted chocolates or settle in for a full meal in one of a dozen restaurants with food from around the world.
Turn your day trip into an overnight stay at one of the quaint Bed & Breakfasts and elegant Inn - cuddle up to a warm hearth fire in winter, or wander the gardens in spring and summer.
Every season brings with it a new delight - ice sculpting at the Winter Fest, arts and crafts at the spring Shad Festival, Friday night fireworks throughout the summer and scenic fall foliage tours during the autumn.
