New digital map most complete of historic Erie Canal

This section of the Ohio & Erie Canal towpath trail is in Akron! Park in the Cascade Locks Park and you'll see the painted path outside the Mustill Store Museum. After checking out the museum, we recommend heading south on the towpath. Perfect mix between nature and city views as you go past Canal Park Stadium and Lock 3. You can also take one of the roads off the trail and walk around downtown Akron and grab food or snacks. Find more Akron fun here -> https://northeastohiofamilyfun.com/things-t
