River, west of Palmyra, Wayne County |

Public

Hiking |
You
can get the best view of this waterfall from the
Canalway Trail bridge over the Ganargua River. You
can also visit Lock 29 which is on an island formed
by the Canal, the diversion falls, and the Ganargua
River. From the east end of the park, you can follow
a trail along the old Erie Canal to the village
of Palmyra (1/2 mile) to the corner of Church Street
and Route 31 and see the only intersection in America
with a church on all four corners. |
Biking |
As of 1999,
this spot marks the eastern end of the Canalway
Trail which borders the Erie Canal from Palmyra
to Lockport 80 mile to the west. This continuous trail
is designated for biking, hiking, and cross-country
skiing. Eventually, the trail will connect Albany
to Buffalo. |
