Glens Falls Feeder Canal.
The Glens Falls Feeder Canal is a working relic — a seven-mile remnant of the 1832 waterway that once fed the Champlain Canal, now maintained as a quiet linear park threading through the city of Glens Falls and into the northern Lake George corridor. The canal runs narrow and controlled, more riverwalk than wild water, with a crushed stone towpath on the east bank that doubles as a walking/cycling corridor. No fish data on record; this is not fishing water in any serious sense — it's urban infrastructure turned green space, a flat-water paddle or a shaded run between neighborhoods. Park access at Haviland Cove (north end) and multiple road crossings in town; the canal feeds into the Hudson River at the south terminus.
Glens Falls Feeder Canal has public access.
