This lock is precision work. Shortly afterward, it's best to cross to the opposite side of the canal to safely backtrack a bit and view the boat lift from below. This way, you can avoid the road.

A small relief to ride flat along the canal for a while when you come from the hilly area.

Beautiful old disused canal path with former lock houses

The canal is worth a bike trip - although the section between Nancy and Xouaxange does not offer such outstanding landscapes.

We had a lovely night at the mayor's and were able to eat well in town. Try pronouncing "Xouaxange". It sounds like "Souasansch"; with a little French word sense it should work.

On this canal route there was everything - completely neglected cycle paths and then well-maintained ones like here. Is that down to the responsibilities?

A little further away you can still find the old canal and locks with lock houses. I have added 2 or 3 pictures.
