Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor

  Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor :-

The Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor was established on December 21, 2000 (P.L. 106-554, Title VIII, Sec. 801). The Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor covers 524 miles in Upstate New York, including four navigable waterways: Erie, Champlain, Oswego and Cayuga-Seneca; sections of the first Erie Canal; and over 200 municipalities adjacent to the canals. On June 17th, 2002, the National Park Service, in partnership with the State of New York, formalized the 27-member Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor Commission. The purpose of this commission is to work with federal, state, and local authorities in creating and implementing a Canalway Plan for the corridor that fosters the integration of canal-related historical, cultural, recreational, scenic, economic and community development initiatives.

ACTIVITIES
Recreation abounds along the Erie Canalway. The N.Y. State Canal Corporation with the assistance of the National Park Service's Rivers, Trails, and Conservation Assistance program, has completed more than 230 trail miles for biking and hiking along the corridor.
