Questions & answers

Q:
Is the Canal Walk dog friendly ?
A:
Yes, it is dog friendly. We saw many during our walk, most on leashes. I think that leashes are required but I can't recall seeing any signs stating that.
Q:
Where is the best place to park?
A:
To help others, if you set your GPS for Tredegar Iron Works and drive past the American Civil War Museum, there is free parking on the right just past the paid lot.
Q:
how long is the canal walk??
A:
It is a good 30 minutes walk. It starts around the area of the Capitol Park and stretch along the canal to the end of the Canal where the Federal Reserve Building is.
Q:
Ate the boats tours open 24 december ?
A:
No they are not.
Q:
On the canal boat ride can you bring your dog? He is a well behaved Labrador.
A:
I don't think so, you can call and ask but I am pretty sure it is not something they will allow unless he is a helper dog/service dog.
