St. Helena III Canal Boat

The St. Helena III docks and departs from the Canal Fulton Canalway Center and can carry up to sixty passengers down an original section of the Ohio-Erie Canal. The canal trip is just a little over two miles round trip and takes approximately 55 minutes to travel. On your journey, the horse drawn canal boat takes its passengers past the McLauglin Dry Dock where the St. Helena III is stored for the winter. At the far end of the course, the boat reaches the Lock IV turning basin. Here the boat crew skillfully pulls the boat around for the scenic trip back home. Visitors can also view a thirty minute video of "Our Canal Heritage" in the amphitheater located in the Canalway Center.
