BUREAU – The Friends of the Canal are holding their monthly Hike the Canal outing on Sunday, Jan. 20.
This month’s hike will be from Lock 3 to Lock 6. The hike is 4.5 miles in length and it has been named the “Great Blue Heron.”
Participants will meet at Lock 3 at 1:30 p.m., where they will be shuttled to Lock 6 to begin the hike. Lock 3 is located on the northwest side of Routes 26 and 29 in Bureau.
The monthly hikes were developed by the Friends of the Hennepin Canal as an opportunity to get to know the Canal personally by hiking it from the Illinois River to the Mississippi (including the Feeder Canal) in small legs.
You do not need to be a member of the Friends to join them on any of the hikes and there is no fee. Come and join in the fun and bring a friend. They ask that you dress weather appropriately.
For more information, contact Ed Herrmann at hikes@friends-hennepin-canal.org or call (815) 664-2403.
