Augusta Canal is a National Heritage Area, a place designated by the U.S. Congress that best represents an important theme in American history. Augusta Canal tells the story of the Industrial Revolution in the American South. Built in 1845 to harness the water and power of the Savannah River, this canal brought textile and other manufacturing to the region in the era before, during and after the American Civil War. Augusta Canal is the oldest continuously operating hydropower canal in the United States.

The Augusta Canal is a popular recreation area, offering refreshing recreational experiences along miles of towpath, trail and waterway. The waterway runs roughly parallel to the Savannah River along its first level of approximately 7 miles before branching for several more miles along its second and third levels in the downtown Augusta area.

Your support will allow us to maintain the canal and add to our trails and paths along the canal and into downtown Augusta!
