Join the Erie Canal Museum and Hudson Crossing Park for a guided 90 minute historic cycling tour of the Erie Canal route in Schuylerville. Participants will be able to enjoy an approximately 4 mile, mostly flat ride from the Champlain Region Gateway Visitor's Center in downtown Schuylerville following both the Champlain Canal and Hudson River. The route starts as a stone dust trail along the Original Champlain Canal Towpath, which today is also part of the Champlain Canalway and Empire State Trail systems with a very brief on-road stint as we pass over Champlain Canal Lock 5. We will continue through Hudson Crossing Park on a mowed grass trail to what is known as "Eagle Point," where the Canal and River converge by a unique slackwater dam. If time allows we will cross the historic Dix Bridge on the way back, which overlooks the Hudson River as well as the site of the British Army's 1777 crossing as they headed to the Battle of Saratoga and their historic defeat during the Revolutionary War. The ride will end at Bound by Fate Brewing. Go to the following link for more information or to buy a ticket: https://eriecanalmuseum.org/cycling/
