Sault Ste Marie Canal National Historic Site of Canada
Completed in 1895, the Sault Ste. Marie Canal was once the world's longest lock, the first to operate using electricity and the last link in an all-Canadian navigational chain from the Atlantic Ocean to Lake Superior. Today, visitors will enjoy this great spot for boat-watching, picnics and a variety of other activities. Let a Parks Canada interpreter introduce you to the canal’s fascinating history, rent a Fat Bike, or join them for tea at the Superintendent’s Residence.
