We stopped here for coffee and apple juice. Ham isn't really my thing. It's a bit run down overall. Nobody here cares about sweeping the streets, which is why the leaves were blown into the café, but nobody cares. It was a bit sobering.

These charging stations are actively in use. I've never seen so many cargo ships on any other canal. There are several charging stations of various shapes and sizes along the canal.

A nice place with guest rooms and two yurts. The breakfast was plentiful and if you book in advance you can have a good evening meal. The owner is a chef and also runs a restaurant in another town. Large parties can also be held here. The landlady is very hospitable. We really enjoyed the indoor pool after a strenuous stage on the bikes. —— Les Colombines +33 6 42389439 lescolombines80@gmail.com lescolombines.com
