    The Canal d'Orléans is an old waterway that connects the Loire to the Canal du Loing and the Canal de Briare. Over its 78 kilometer length, the canal comprises a total of 26 reaches (portions of a canal between two locks) and 29 locks.

    The Moulin-Rouge reach is 1,500 meters long. It is bordered upstream by the lock of Combreux and, downstream, by the lock of Moulin-Rouge.

    The lock is no longer functional, but that does not detract from the charm of the place!

    On the cycle path on the canal you drive directly along the shore and keep coming back to beautiful, old locks.
