$10 to visit, interesting look at the history of the canal including a life-sized canal boat, workshop, and store you can walk through. They also have a small gift shop with a couple snacks/coffee available.

This structure is a navigable aqueduct, carrying water over water. Truly an incredible feat of engineering showcased in the Erie canal project

This cute little park sits right alongside the old Erie Canal. It's a good picnic spot or turnaround point for the Erie Canalway Trail, which is just on the other side of the water. If you wanted to, you could ride all the way from Albany to Buffalo along the local canal trails, but not all parts of those trails will be as pretty as this area, since they travel through the cities and the water isn't always visible.

This trail/tow path mostly follows the route of the old, historic Erie Canal. Along this portion you can see where the original canal was enlarged, along with some beautiful stonework and a good look at a wide area in the canal called Cedar Bay. The trail here is paved, but some parts of the Erie Canalway Trail are hard-packed dirt and gravel.

The Erie Canal Trail traces the path of the historic Erie Canal, which was largely replaced by the Barge Canal between 1905 and 1918. Today, the trail offers a glimpse of the canal's landscapes, showcasing its beauty and providing a scenic route to explore. The trail is made of hard-packed fine gravel.

This is the remains of a three-span aqueduct across Limestone Creek, first completed in 1856. You can't see the original wooden trunk anymore; it has been replaced by a concrete channel.

From the bridge, you'll catch a glimpse of the Old Erie Canal State Historic Park, where remnants of the canal persist along its towpath. You'll encounter several aqueducts, locks, and bridges, each offering a glimpse into the canal's past.

Built in 1856 as part of the Enlarged Erie Canal, the aqueduct is right on the Erie Canalway Trail, and you can ride right over it.
