View of the Canal Tunnel of Niederviller

Highlight • Viewpoint

The canal is viewed from above. Pretty much just below you is the entrance and exit of the tunnel of the canal.

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

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.

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" 😉🚵‍♂️

Here you drive under a railway bridge. The construct is pretty interesting, I think.
