Lock 20 State Canal Park

Very easy hike about a mile long. Canal and Lock views are amazing.

Beautiful day at the Erie Canal lock #20. Had the chance to see the lock in operation which was a double treat. Lovely park with plenty of tables and benches, as well as a well maintained grass field. Highly recommended if you want to see a fully operational historic lock up close.

We went for a walk on the paved trail. Trail is wide enough for walkers and wheelchairs. We saw many people pole fishing and enjoying the beautiful. Lots of people walking the trail - they were friendly but not pushy. There were many picnic tables. It was pretty there, many wildflowers and cattails!

Paved and gravel trail perfect for walking and biking. Access for fishermen. Locks let you walk across. Bathrooms were closed on 6/16/21, but Porta potties were there.

Historical system still in use. Beautiful park!

I will definitely go to this again. This is very nice.

Nice place for walking, sitting down to read a book, or have a family meal. Bring bug repellent as there are a few mosquitoes. Parking is plentiful.

A great place for a day of watching boats and enjoying some fishing or even just a picnic.

The trailways are always a must for an adventurous type and even sporty people. The water and the canal are always a shining light into New York States history.

A beautiful relaxing trail in Herkimer to walk and run to destress and get exercise! Love it!

Great little picnic and rest area. With well maintained trails. Very nice little spot to go for a walk.

Loved it!! Great place to go fishing

Had a great time here… super clean

I must warn you people....this is a very relaxing place, the scenery, trail, view of the boats And transfer point is amazing! ......But it is mosquito season. Don't be fooled or you will get eaten alive. Wear long sleeves and sweats or jeans and enjoy the small things that are wonderful.

It's a park with grills and tables and if ur lucky u will see the lock be used. I love the canal trail that's main reason to go.

It's very cool to see how the locks work. You have access to walk all around and on top of the lock. They have picnic area and places to fish with bike trails right there that follows the canal into Utica.

Great walk along the Erie canal. I really enjoyed the historical vignettes along the trail.

A great place to learn about our states history! And how the canal made the great state of NY

Great little park. If you're lucky, you can see the lock open and close to let a boat through.

Excellent bike ride to Floyd!
