La Touche Lock

Highlight • Structure

Beautiful lock. Number 15 from Nantes. On sunny days, you'll find a tavern there.

Melneuf lock

Here, the lock and the spillway are separated by an island, which adds to the charm of the place. Picnic table.

Shelter With Roof by the Canal

Highlight • Rest Area

It's a shame the roof is broken.
But it's a great thing - there are a few on the canal.
Hopefully the roof will be repaired.

Barel Lock

14th lock from Nantes. This one is separated from the spillway by an island. There's also a beautiful stone bridge.

Pretty Lock Gardens

Highlight • Structure

Whenever we drove through one of these "garden locks" that had been beautifully decorated, planted and the grass cut to golf course level, our hearts would melt.
The lock keeper's houses are almost always specially decorated.

Good spot to refuel. Toilets and water, which is rare despite the announcements of signs and tourist offices.
