LAKE & HARBOR

  • Oswego Canal

     

    The Oswego Canal

     

     

    The Oswego Canal opened in 1828 as a part of New York's Erie Canal System and connects the Erie Canal at 'Three Rivers' near Liverpool, NY with Lake Ontario at Oswego Harbor. 

     

     

     

    Managed by the New York Canal Corporation, the Canal is utilized by Boaters who wish to travel to and from the Erie Canal Inland Waterways and Great Lake Ontario.

    The Canal is 23.7 miles in length, and contains a series of Seven locks that lift the water level a total of 118 feet over the entire 23+ mile journey. Three of these locks are found in Oswego.

    The Depth is 14 feet / width 120 feet / with an air draft of 21 feet for tall vessels; and the Canal is fully navigatable throughout its extent. 

    The Oswego Canal is the only waterway that courses between the Atlantic/Hudson River system and Lake Ontario that is entirely within U.S. boundaries.
