We hiked the "1825 Erie Canal Towpath Trai". This is an interesting trail. There are actually two trails here with that name. One is a wide stone dust surfaced bike path, and the other is a narrow dirt trail. The trails are on different "towpaths" through the old Erie Canal. We actually hiked the narrow dirt trail, which runs for a mile. There's a connection to the bike path that we could have taken back, but the bike path lacked shade so we returned the way we came. We did walk a short bit of the bike path on the side where we started from. There's a small connecting trail that leads out to a lookout over the Mohawk River. We wound up walking a total of three miles here.
