Canal Sarre

SELF DRIVE RIVER BOAT RENTALS FROM Harskirchen


 

This base is the starting point for one-way river cruises to Saverne on the Marne-Rhine Canal. Take a few minutes before heading out to visit the Willer Water Mill, which functions as before, located just outside the village.

The locks are automatic on the Marne-Rhine Canal and the Rhone-Rhine Canal. They are closed on some bank holidays. Locks are manual on the Canal de la Sarre.

The Canal de la Marne requires repair work east of Saverne: navigation is therefore interrupted at this level from March 2025 until the end of May 2025.

Sector concerned: Canal de la Marne au Rhin, East branch (on reach 34) between pk 271.016 (Lock 33 at Monswiller) and pk 272.221 (Lock 34 at Steinbourg).

As a result, there is no one-way navigation in Alsace (Boofzheim-Hesse or Languimberg-Waltenheim) from March to the end of May 2025, and no navigation to Strasbourg until the end of May 2025.

Navigation on this region’s waterways is quite easy and perfectly suitable for a first canal cruise experience.

You can moor wherever you want along the canals, even in the heart of the countryside.

  • Car: A4 motorway, exit 43 Sarre-Union
  • Train: TGV Sarre-Union (4 km)
  • Air: Strasbourg (80 km)
  • All shops at 1 km from the base
