Rully lock. There are three charging stations for electric bikes behind the old lock keeper's house.

An old church on the Canal du Centre

There are many beautiful places to visit along the canal, and a few minutes away there are also bars and restaurants

Cozy cycle path along the water to Chalon-sur-Saone.

On this part of the cycle path there are always beautiful boats and ships that pass by or that you can overtake yourself.

The rapeseed is blooming. Wonderful yellow fields can be found on the Canal du Center.

The Canal du Centre was designed to connect the two major rivers, the Loire and the Saône, for commercial purposes. It links Chalon-sur-Saône, a town on the banks of the Saône, to Digoin, on the banks of the Loire. It is 112 kilometers long. This waterway provided Burgundy with an invaluable asset at the time, connecting the Mediterranean Sea to the Atlantic Ocean. The first stone was laid in 1784. The first barge sailed on the canal in 1791, in the midst of the French Revolution.

I take this opportunity to give my opinion on this beautiful greenway to remind you of a few basic rules for knowing how to be on these paths without a car: dogs must be kept on a leash, pedestrians must walk on the side of the road against the current of cyclists, which allows them to see them coming and push each other if they walk abreast, cyclists do not ride abreast, do not stop in the middle of the road without looking if other people are coming and these roads are not made to speed up there since they are open to anything without a motor. I'm surprised there aren't more accidents given the behavior of some people.
