The Champlain Canal is a 60 mi canal in New York that connects the Hudson River to the south end of Lake Champlain.

- Champlain Canal

The byway unifies the interconnected waterway of the upper Hudson River, Champlain Canal, Lake George, and Lake Champlain; this waterway is the core of North America's first "super-highway" between upstate New York and the Canadian province of Quebec.

- Lakes to Locks Passage

Today, it is mostly used by recreational boaters as part of the New York State Canal System and Lakes to Locks Passage.

- Champlain Canal

Because of both Lake Champlain's connection to the St. Lawrence Seaway via the Richelieu River and the existence of the Champlain Canal, Lake Champlain is sometimes referred to as "The Sixth Great Lake."

- Lake Champlain

Together with these waterways, the lake is part of the Lakes to Locks Passage.
