Confirmed from Lockport Canal Bike Trail's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
What runners say about Lockport Canal Bike Trail
“Well maintained trail with pleasant rolling hills and scenery.”
“A beautiful biking/hiking trail along the Canal in Lockport almost to Pendelton Center.”
“Like a walk in the country, peaceful and Serene”
Very good paved and gravel path clearly marked. Several parking areas along the trail .
This trail is paved. There are mild/small elevation changes along the way. Foliage adjacent to the trail helps control the wind. It is also scenic and ties into a bike path following Tonawanda Creek. It's a great place to ride or walk. There's also an ice cream shop near the south end of the trail.
Beautiful trail for walking or riding a bicycle. Well maintained and clean. Highly recommended.
Beautiful and well kept section of the Erie canal trail. Dog friendly on a leash- pick up after your own pup. Wide, clear, hard surface trail.
