Stop along the New York State Barge Canal (part of the original Erie Canal) and take in the vista of barges passing through the locks. Nearby Schoharie Crossing State Historic Site is the only remaining area with visible remains of all three stages of Erie Canal development. Visitors can photograph the seven arches of the great Schoharie Aqueduct, a mid-19th-century engineering marvel built to carry the canal over Schoharie Creek. West of the city, tour Old Fort Johnson (1749), now a museum of American Indian and Colonial history. A little further west is Auriesville, with its National Shrine of the North American Martyrs Indian museum and chapel. The area offers lots of boating, fishing, and picnic spots.
