Montech Water Slope

Highlight • Historical Site

The Montech water slope is an old boat lift that facilitated commercial river navigation by avoiding the passage of five locks. Today, it is converted into a museum, playground and picnic area. It is an ideal place for a fun break.

Montech Canal

Highlight • Other

Here the Canal de Montech branches off from the Canal Lateral du Garonne to Montauban.
The Canal Lateral du Garonne is also divided, once via the locks and then to the Pente d'Eau de Montech.
There is a nice tourist information office for the Pente d'Eau de Montech right opposite.
