A little further away you can still find the old canal and locks with lock houses. I have added 2 or 3 pictures.

This bridge is a real challenge with a touring bike loaded with a lot of luggage and cannot be managed by women without courageous help. What a joke it is that it is "easy to cross"!!!

Magnificent almost 360 degree panorama. There is a very appreciable calm as the area is not very busy and the roads are far away. (you can even squeeze into some cavities in the rock!)

The Écluse de Réchicourt-le-Château shaft lock, built between 1960 and 1965 and approximately 3 km from the main town along the Rhine-Marne Canal, replaces a lock staircase with six locks. Depending on the water level in the canal, their fall height is 15.45 to 16.10 meters. This makes it the highest French lock in a barge canal.

An absolute highlight, because from up there you can see the lake district and the Vosges 🚵♂️

When the sun is shining, carrying it with the bikepacking setup is not that easy, but there is a wonderful view from the top all the way to the Black Forest in the east.

Impressive lock 16 meters high on the Marne-Rhine canal. It is an ideal bivouac spot, you will find many picnic tables as well as barbecues and even a shared library. The site is remarkably maintained by the Voies Navigales de France and the atmosphere is particularly pleasant.
