The Lockport Cave and Underground Boat Ride is a one-of-a-kind experience that explores the 19th-century Erie Canal locks and its caves and tunnels. The guided historical tour delves into the history of the historic Erie Canal Locks 67-71 known as the ‘Flight of Five’ taking visitors on a journey back in time to 1838. Expert guides show visitors the various types of rock that needed to be blasted to make the canal locks and several artifacts left behind by the men who built the tunnel. An eerie underground boat ride along the canal gives visitors a chance to see the working conditions for the builders of the canal and locks in the late 1800s.
