Mohawk River Lock 8

Highlight • Structure

Who doesn't live biking along a river? But in this case the really interesting things are the river locks, which can be filled with water (or partially emptied of it) to help ships navigate the upslope or downslope of the river, depending on which direction they're going.

Highlight • Monument

Next to the Mohawk-Hudson Bike Trail. Good spot for a stop. It is fun watching the ships in the lock.
