Located at the junction between the Northern and Central Vosges mountains, Phalsbourg offers an ideal setting for mountain biking. The numerous surrounding trails allow for fun on rolling terrain without excessively steep inclines.

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 very beautiful cycle path along an impressive monument to the history of technology. To overcome the difference in elevation, 17 locks were built into the canal. Each of these 17 locks had its own lockkeeper. The charming lockkeeper's houses that line the canal give an idea of the comfortable, prosperous lives the lockkeepers led.
