Everything about The Champlain Canal totally explained
The
Champlain Canal is a 60-mile
canal that connects the south end of
Lake Champlain to the
Hudson River in
New York. It was built as a feeder canal to the
Erie Canal and is now part of the
New York State Canal System and the
Lakes to Locks Passage.
The canal was proposed in 1812 and construction authorized in 1817. By 1818, twelve miles were completed and
in 1819 the canal was opened from
Fort Edward to Lake Champlain. The canal was officially opened on
1823-09-10 on the same day as the
Erie Canal from
Rochester to
Albany. It was an immediate financial success.
Today, the canal provides a convenient route from the Atlantic/Hudson River to Lake Champlain for recreational boaters. By traveling the length of Lake Champlain, boaters can access the
Chambly Canal, which connects Lake Champlain to the
Saint Lawrence Seaway.
