Bike The Historic I&M Canal During Your Route 66 Roadtrip

Designed with you in mind, we invite you to discover the I&M Canal at Channahon State Parkway with easy access and great parking just off Old US Rt 66.

The ever-popular Channahon to Morris stretch is rated by the I&M Canal National Heritage Area as ‘15 miles of crushed limestone, easy & flat’ is enough to ensure a great trip. And if walking or running is not your thing, then grab one of the convenient rental bikes, right here on site.

Unlocked through a cell phone app, you can rent on an hourly basis enjoying everything the canal has to offer. And unique to Channahon, you can take in the restored locks 6 & 7 including an original lock tender’s home.

There’s a lot to see along the way including locks, damns and even two ghost towns. See our other articles on nearby attractions and great dining in Channahon too.
