Roebling’s Delaware Aqueduct
Upper Delaware Scenic and Recreational River
From canal boats to canoes, the past flows into the present here at the Delaware Aqueduct. Walk across the aqueduct’s reconstructed towpath where mules once pulled Delaware & Hudson Canal boats back to Pennsylvania for another load of coal. Enjoy views of the river valley today as you imagine the transformation of this river crossing from low-water ford to rope ferry to aqueduct, and finally to road bridge.
Marker is at the intersection of New York Route 97 and Minisink Road, on the left when traveling north on State Route 97.
