A peaceful and emotional route along the canal.

Lock built in 1690, now listed as a Historic Monument and which regained its former appearance in 2022 with the installation of new solid oak doors, following two successive reconstructions of the upstream and downstream heads during the 19th century.

A nice place to take a short break at the Relais des Trois Écluses

Lock on the first part of the Orléans Canal, built in the 17th century. Beautifully flowered and well maintained. There is a picnic table there.

This site is most characteristic of the Orléans Canal, which was once a vital waterway for transporting timber and other materials from the Orléans Forest to Paris. You can admire the three old locks and their lock house, which date from the 18th and 19th centuries. You can also see the small forge, built in 1821, which has a charming facade with a circular window. The site also includes a garden with remains of the original ponds. You can enjoy peaceful water and forest views, and perhaps spot the Belle de Grignon, a replica of a 19th century barge that was built by local enthusiasts. The Grignon site is an ideal place to discover the heritage and natural riches of the Loiret.

Former port, the most important in the timber trade of the Orléans forest, widely used at the time in construction or for heating Paris. Very characteristic site with its 3 locks and its lock keeper's house.
