Navigation on the Canal des Houilleres a la Sarre :
This canal forms a waterway 105 km long, including 63 km artificial canal with 27 locks. From Sarreguemines, this canal runs through the beautiful valley of the Saar and runs along the Alsace Bossue and the regional park of Lorraine. It is also known to be one of the greenest in France. The channel also passes through the reservoir lakes of Lorraine Gondrexange, Mittersheim and Stock. From Saarbrucken to Gondrexange, there is a towpath converted into a cycle path.

Navigation on the Canal Marne au Rhin :
Sailing west along the canal Marne au Rhin, you will find yourself in a land with an unique character as you come across the historic town of Saverne (16-km from Hochfelden). The inclined plane, Arzviller (ship lift), is the only one of its type in Europe and it replaces 17 locks in total! With its classic form (including the West Tunnel, and the Rechicourt Lock), this canal offers a total escape from the busyness of the city. Reputed to be a weaving canal, you will be enchanted by the magnificent landscapes you find as you cross the Vosges.
