A beautiful old lock - or rather the remains of it. Further back in the pictures you can see a canoe that had capsized previously and which another cyclist and I salvaged. Please be careful when canoeing, small things can cause it to capsize.

The boards are located below the bridge, but are very informative - enjoy reading them!

This is a really beautiful, old church. The adjacent cemetery also has a great atmosphere. If you have the time, you should take a look at it.
