Thoraise Lock

The locks are all small and nice to look at.

Thoraise Tunnel

Highlight • Historical Site

The breakthrough of Thoraise is a canal that saves 4km of navigation on the Doubs. Provided you have a small boat.
On the upstream side, pay attention to the curtain …

May 29, 2025,EV6 Besancon nach Dampierre

Our journey continues on the Euro Velo 6. After leaving Besançon behind, we continue along the Doubs. Today, there was a lot of traffic… especially some very annoying "Gümeler" (a kind of silly thing). I wonder if they were racing? In any case, we finally arrived in Dampierre. For dinner, a delicious pizza and beer… mmm.
