View of Lutzelbourg

Highlight • Viewpoint

Beautiful view of the picturesque village of Lutzelbourg. Downstream after the bridge there are boat moorings where you can recharge your water and electricity for a small fee. A CEE adapter is required for the electricity, however. But the camper always has one with him anyway. You can relax on the numerous picnic benches next door.

Cycle Bridge Over the Old Canal

Highlight • Bridge

The old canal is now dry (replaced by the new canal with a boat lift). A cycle bridge now runs a few hundred meters in the old canal.

Old Lock Staircase and Lock Keeper's House

Highlight • Monument

The old canal is now more than ever a real highlight, the many old locks tell a long story from the good old days when not everything was "smart" 😉🚵‍♂️

Along the disused canal

Highlight • Other

One of the most beautiful sections of the trip: the disused canal, rendered useless by the boat lift. Every few hundred meters, there's a lock with an idyllic lock-keeper's cottage along a gently sloping bike path.

Reservoir on the old canal

Highlight • Other

Nice bike and hiking trail along the old canal. At some locks you can still see the old mechanics. I posted a picture with a text like it used to be. You can collect nice impressions
