This place is amazing and great for a walk or run through the woods. Excellent for people of all ages and activity levels. The path is soft, flat and grassy. There are rest points along the way and plaques depicting historical images of the Erie Canal and its construction.
Great bird views, and spots to check out the Mohawk River. Sometimes you’ll find cool things left behind by others.

A pleasant, sunny "NY Parks First Day" hike along the tow paths. Shared a ~2.75 miles walk with many others enjoying a mild January 1st day.

Great place to visit for a walk with dogs or on bike or just on your own two feet. Wonderful history too! Check out the visitors center.

I revisited this after many years. This is better than I remembered it. It is a great way to spend a day and to see some history of the canal. There are a lot of historic sites near by to explore.

Beautiful wildlife filled trails - Towpath Trail, Canalway Trail - and lots of interesting history in a quaint little town. Highly recommend!
