Our guiding vision for this unique multiuse trail is ” for an attractive and continuous Champlain Canalway Trail route from Whitehall to Waterford, that uses historic towpaths, Champlain Canal shoreline, existing local and regional trails, on-street bicycle routes and links to regional and community attractions“.
Champlain Canal Trail Working Group
The Champlain Canalway Trail Working Group (CCTWG) is a volunteer, ad hoc partnership that includes local and regional canal and trail groups, public agencies, and park and preservation organizations. The Working Group benefits from the existing network of the Canalway Trail Association of New York, a statewide, all-volunteer organization of trail owners and managers formed to assist localities to develop, manage, and maintain the Canalway Trail. The Champlain Canalway Trail 2019 Action Plan (Action Plan) was funded by a grant from the Hudson River Valley Greenway to the Town of Stillwater.
