Beautiful, sometimes sunny, sometimes shady, stretch of the Canal de Nivernais. Great to drive with children, varied through locks of different types, bascule bridges or pretty "Fermes" left and right

A route vert runs along the entire Canal du Nivernais. Good to cycle. Check in advance whether there are places for breaks or bring your own food. The eckluses (locks) give a little bump but easy to cycle for people who are used to the flat Netherlands.
