Waterways of France
The French network of waterways includes 100 canals and rivers, totaling over 8,000 kilometers. There are dozens of possible cruises, along a single canal or into other inter-connected waterways. Boats (within size limits) can pass through from the English Channel to the Med. The cruising waterways are shown on this map; canals are in blue, rivers are red.
