Selles Swing Bridge

Highlight • Rest Area

This bridge rotates to allow free passage to boats navigating on the Eastern Canal.

It is dated from the 19th century and is still in operation. It is operated by hand and pivots on its axis thanks to wheels located under the apron.

It is used by vehicles and pedestrians. A few meters away is a stone bridge, in contrast to the metal swing bridge, which spans the river.

Greenway along the Canal des Vosges

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The Canal des Vosges (German: Vosges Canal) is a French shipping channel, which runs in the regions of Grand Est and Bourgogne-Franche-Comté. Until 2003, the Canal des Vosges and the Canal de la Meuse were collectively referred to as the Canal de l'Est.
At Epinal it runs partly parallel to the Moselle. The cycle path is here between the two waters.
