Tips

December 10, 2023

Cycling

The Canal de la Deûle is one of the oldest canals in northern France and connects the river Scarpe at Douai with the river Lys at Deûlémont, near the Belgian border. The canal is approximately 34.8 km long and has 3 locks. Most of the canal is included in the high-quality Dunkerque-Escaut waterway, and the remaining section through the port of Lille is often considered a branch of the main route, hence the alternative names Liaison or Antenne Bauvin-Lys.

Towpath alternating between tarmac and fine gravel, fairly smooth.
Perfect for a family stroll.

Nice views, quiet, but shitty tarmac, when there is.
