Sally’s Trail Designation

We are filing a petition with the village of Fort Edward to establish “Sally’s Trail” as an official designated trail. The trail runs along the west side of the canal from East Street to Argyle Street (Route 197). This will enable us to obtain a permit from Canal Corp. to keep the area a natural trail for public use. The trail has been maintained by Canal Corp. for 20-25 years. “Sally’s Trail” lies along the Champlain Canal Corridor that is on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. On June 4, 2022, this NYS Canalway water trail was designated in Washington D.C. as part of the National Trail System.
