past Mareuil-sur-Ay

Highlight (Segment) • Other

Very nice route on the Canal Lateral past Mareuil-sur-Ay with a small marina. Worth mentioning is the Saint-Hilaire church with its original church from the Merovingian period.

Romantic avenue of plane trees by the canal

Highlight (Segment) • Other

For me, this section is one of the most beautiful on the Canal Lateral with its plane trees and mistletoe. Especially nice when the wind blows through the leaves.

Confluence of the Canal Lateral and Canal l'Aisne

Highlight • Other

From here, the Canal de l'Aisne a la Marne branches off towards Marne. Not far away there is a new picnic area with shady benches.
