Hugh Moore Park Access provides a well-developed trailhead with ample parking (located in the main park lot accessible via a one-lane iron bridge) and serves as a gateway to the Delaware & Lehigh Trail system and the Lehigh River Water Trail.

The park features the National Canal Museum, canal boat rides, bike rentals, playgrounds, and multiple recreational trails, with direct access to both the Lehigh Canal towpath and nearby Lehigh River water trail access points for paddling and fishing.
