The canal stretches for 27 kilometers and includes eight locks, allowing vessels to navigate the varying elevations of the water.
Opened in 1833, the Welland Canal is considered one of the great engineering feats of its time and continues to be a critical part of the St. Lawrence Seaway. As we pass by, you’ll get a sense of the canal's importance in supporting maritime trade and its role in the development of the Niagara region. You may even see some ships passing through the locks, a fascinating sight for those interested in engineering or maritime history.
