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"!!!

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.

There are also "guided tours" for the little ones. Only in French when we were there.

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.
