One of the many locks on the canal near the village of Pléalauff. Just after, the bridge allowing you to cross the canal and reach the wash house. All on the Vélodyssée route.

A stretch on the dam before the Trehu Moron dam.
The landscape is constantly changing. The canal meanders through the countryside here.
I love this landscape, and it's a good mood to drive here.

Beautifully restored former lock guardian's house, now perhaps private.

Manual lock, although the guardian's house seems to be given to someone private.

Small bridge whose arc forms a semicircle, and whose reflection perfectly completes the circle. A beautiful shot to take along the Vélodyssée greenway.
