Étupes Lock on the EV6
Highlight • Structure
This section of the canal between Mulhouse and Montbéliard today is too narrow for commercial transport, it is used mainly for pleasure boats, in a month about 150 boats. In dry conditions, the water level in the canal must be lowered, and the boats must pass the locks in groups of 4 boats together.

Chemin de Halage Allenjoie, EV6
Highlight • Cycleway
The village now lives to the rhythm of boating and sports and leisure activities developed along the canal, including the bike path on the old towpath. This track is an integral part of the EuroVelo 6 cycle route linking Saint-Nazaire to Constanţa. It can reach many other cycling routes in Alsace, Franche-Comté, Switzerland and Germany. fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valdieu-Lutran#Histoire

Montbéliard–Haute-Saône Canal beside the Allan
Highlight • River
The Haute-Saône Canal, still called the Montbéliard Canal in the Haute-Saône, is a waterway that begins in the north of the Doubs department, crosses the south-western part of the Territoire de Belfort and an unfinished section, is located in the eastern part of Haute-Saone. It is after the loss of Alsace in 1871 that the government of the Third Republic decided in 1878 the construction of canals in the East of France to allow the circulation of the goods, and in particular the Lorraine steel products towards Franche -Comté, between the region of Nancy and those of Burgundy and Franche-Comté. One of the first projects concerned the construction of the Eastern Canal, which began around 1875 and was completed in 1887, and that of the Haute-Saône Canal, which was to link the French part of the Rhone-Rhine Canal to the Eastern Canal. . The goal was also to serve the coal mines of Ronchamp and to evacuate the coal produced in its wells. fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canal_de_la_Haute-Sa%C3%B4ne
