Join us for a unique experience along the C&O Canal!This year's boat program will highlight the launch boats that traveled along the canal during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Launch boats were typically 30-foot long boats that were used primarily for leisure and business. They were much smaller in comparison to the 90-foot mule-drawn boats that usually dominated the canal. A ticket is required to attend a boat ride. Tickets are free of charge and available at the Great Falls Tavern Visitor Center. Tickets will be available one hour prior to the start of each ride.
Tickets are available on a first come, first served basis. Tickets cannot be reserved in advance.
The 2024 boat season at Great Falls Tavern will run August-October.
Visit Field Trips for programs both on and off the canal boat.
