Collancelle Locks

Highlight • River

Here you will find 16 locks on a 3 km stretch of the Nivernais canal. It's a great place to watch boats go by and see the lock in action. The Voie Verte along the canal is also a pleasant walk.

The part of a few knots between Le Grand Jailly - Vorroux is downright bad. Not for cycling. Avoid that part.
