Nice view of the ponds and the villa "Les étangs".

nice benches for a picnic in the shade.

There are several of these bridges - unfortunately I didn't see any of them in action.

In the middle of nowhere on the canal – the whistle of a steam locomotive. These steam locomotives and the layout are simply beautiful to behold.

opposite the Quai du Canal, you can sit comfortably in the shade

The Cratère de Lochnagar, an impressive war memorial, was created by a huge mine blown up by the British Royal Engineers on 1 July 1916, as part of the Battle of the Somme. The explosion marked the beginning of the battle and left a crater 90 metres in diameter and 25 metres deep. Interestingly, the crater was named after Lochnagar Street, the trench from which the tunnel was dug. The crater is now a preserved site of remembrance and a religious service is held there every year on 1 July in memory of those who died.
