Lock 20 - Ashburnham - Trent-Severn Waterway National Historic Site

Lock 20 is located at the northeastern corner of Little Lake in Peterborough. Located away from busy roads, this lock station makes for a quiet stop within the city limits. Boaters can walk or bike on the Trans Canada Trail, which cuts through the site. A beautiful location for overnight mooring, especially on Wednesday and Saturday evenings in the summer, where the Little Lake fireworks can be enjoyed from the lower tie up walls.
