Nine Mile Creek Aqueduct

We meet in Munro park Camillus. We paddle 9 mile creek to the aqueduct. Very scenic and sometimes challenging paddle because of low water and trees in the creek.

Must have your own kayak and life jacket.

Paddlers must bring their own boat and equipment.
$10 if it's your first paddle with us this season.

The 1824 Nine Mile Creek Aqueduct, which is on the National Registry of Historic Sites, is the only restored, rewatered, navigable by boat Aqueduct from the First Enlargement of the Erie Canal in New York State.
An aqueduct is a water-filled bridge that carries canal boats over rivers, streams or valleys. It provided a way for the first enlargement of the Erie Canal to be carried over Nine Mile Creek. This 144-foot waterway is listed as the smallest of the larger aqueducts. Four stone arches made of fine Onondaga limestone quarried from Split Rock supported the towpath. Of the 32 original aqueducts on the First Enlargement, only about seven remain intact.
