Landsford Canal State Park is a South Carolina state park located in Chester County, South Carolina two miles off of U.S. 21. The 460 acre park contains the ruins of a canal bult to bypass rapids on the Catawba River between 1820 and 1825 using slave labor. The coming of the railroad caused the canal to be abandoned. The former lockkeepers house contains an interpretive museum. The park offers hiking, picnicing, boating and fishing.
