The Cape Cod Canal is one of the most impressive engineering feats in American history, as well as a popular recreation area for Cape Cod visitors.

Paved trails on both sides of the canal are great for jogging, biking, walking or fishing, and you can view a parade of pleasure and commercial vessels from almost any point along the way. Scusset Beach State Park on the east end of the canal has a fishing pier and swimming beach on Cape Cod Bay. The Canal's Park Rangers provide guided walks, bike hikes, campfire programs and special programs for children.

A public exhibit about the Canal can be seen at the Herring Run Recreation Area in Bournedale. The Yankee Thrift is just 1/4 mile from one of the entry points to the canal.
