Mirwault Lock

Highlight • Structure

The Mirwault lock is the entrance for boaters to Château-Gontier. It is now mechanized and fully automated. The lock keeper is responsible and can take over if necessary. It's worth stopping by to see it in action.

View of the Mayenne and the Old Mill in Grez-Neuville

Highlight • Viewpoint

Grez Neuville is a charming little village where I recommend you stroll along the Quai de l'Hirondelle and the lock. There you will find pretty views over the village, the Mayenne and an old mill.

La Roussière Lock

Picturesque lock on the banks of the Mayenne on the Vélo Francette route. It is an ideal place to take a break and enjoy the idyllic setting. You can stock up at the Écluse bistro, or visit the small village.
