    Hiking

    The Eichel barrage is over 80 years old, but at the same time it is ultra-modern, after extensive technical innovations have been made in the last decade. Barges, push convoys and cruise ships are now also passed through during the night without the operator having to work on site. The lock process has been remote-controlled from Aschaffenburg for 9 years.
