The Ohio and Erie National Heritage Canalway
The Ohio and Erie Canalway in northeast Ohio was constructed to provide transportation between the Eastern seaboard and the Western frontier. It helped advance westward expansion and made Ohio a booming area. Today the Ohio and Erie National Heritage Canalway is a place to explore the past, present and future with scenic byways, canal towns, rivers and lakes, and industrial landscapes.
