Delaware & Hudson Canal
The Upper Delaware Scenic and Recreational River includes portions of the Delaware and Hudson Canal.
Constructed from 1825 to 1829, with 16 miles of gravity railway and 108 locks over a 108-mile canal, it was built to transport anthracite coal from mines in northeastern Pennsylvania to markets on the Hudson River. Today, visitors can stroll, run, or bike along the towpath. Originally a path for mules pulling canal boats, many sections of towpath have been transformed into unique recreational trails.Back to Top
