Old Lock 12 is one of the “Five Combines” locks in Hudson Falls. The canal was once used for boat traffic but became obsolete in the early 1900s. Today, the Feeder Canal Heritage Trail runs along the canal, making it a popular spot for canoeing, kayaking, jogging, and cycling. The canal stretches for seven miles (11 km), and its towpath attracts tourists from around the world. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
