Saratoga County History Center Presents: Hudson Crossing Park Walking Tour

SARATOGA — Join Hudson Crossing Park Executive Director Kate Morse and resident local historian Mike Biekiewicz for this easy, one mile walk. Kate and Mike will share the history of the First Nations who called the area home. View the site of British General Burgoyne’s “Bridge of Boats” on the way to England’s historic loss during the Battles of Saratoga, and learn about how the Champlain Canal shaped the community and was instrumental in the Underground Railroad. Tour leaders will also discuss the unique challenges of working as environmental stewards along industrialized waterways. 

The event will take place 1-2:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 11, located 1 mile north of Schuylerville at Champlain Lock 5.
