Canal locks: 13

Nearby monument: Saint-Thibault, 13th-century Benedictine church

Next upstream Yonne side town: Eguilly

Next downstream Yonne side village: Villeneuve-sous-Charigny

Upstream is the long 10 kilometres pound between locks 13 and 12 Yonne; although the canal cutting is exciting to see, this section of the canal is in bad condition with damaged canal banks, silt, weeds and low water levels.

The small port has the basics for a short-stay mooring, with a good stone quay. Remember that there is not much commerce nearby. However, there is a cosy place to eat and drink along the main road called "Chez Tata Vero."
