The 360-mile Erie Canalway Trail, when complete, will be the longest intrastate multi-use trail in the country. For more than a decade, Parks & Trails New York has worked with the New York State Canal Corporation, local municipalities, trail groups, and other stakeholders to Close the Gaps in the trail while also promoting the trail to the public and highlighting economic opportunities for local communities. If you’d like to help sustain our work along the Erie Canalway Trail consider riding with us as a Trailblazer in July for our 18th annual Cycle the Erie Canal Tour.

Cycle the Erie Canal Trailblazers are individuals who believe in the vision of a completed Erie Canalway Trail: a 360 mile multi-use trail stretching between Buffalo and Albany, one of the longest trails of its kind and a world class destination for outdoor recreation. Last year’s Trailblazers raised almost $16,000 to support this vision.

Each Trailblazer raises $1,400 to support Parks & Trails New York’s work along the trail. As a thank you for your commitment, you receive a free Trailblazer jersey and cycling the Erie Canal guidebook. We’ll also give each Trailblazer a congratulatory bottle of wine at the finish line and special recognition along the Tour.
