From the Hausen lock in the direction of Nuremberg, the Main-Danube Canal and Regnitz exist as two independent bodies of water. In the direction of Forchheim, the Regnitz itself was developed into a shipping route. Only at Neuses a.d.R. the Regnitz flows again as an independent river through the Aue.
