Erie Canal

The Old Erie Canal State Historic Park drifts gently through Madison County, carrying with it a sense of history that still feels alive.

Walk or bike sections of the Empire State Trail and Erie Canalway Trail, where towpaths invite easy miles and quiet moments– several areas also have footbridges that aid access for visitors to view the remnants of stone aqueducts. Watch paddlers pass through on the waterway, or pause on a bench to take in the calm waters and sky.
