Kanał Żerański, Canal in Warsaw, Poland
The Kanal Żerański stretches over 17.3 kilometers, connecting the Vistula River with Lake Zegrzyńskie through Warsaw's northeastern districts and Nieporęt.
The canal's development began under King Sigismund III Vasa in the 17th century as the Royal Canal to regulate the Długa River and prevent flooding.
The waterway holds significance for local fishermen who gather for competitions in its warmer waters, which support extensive fish populations.
The canal functions as a class II navigable waterway with the Tadeusz Tillinger lock system, enabling vessel passage between different water levels.
The canal serves as a cooling water reservoir for the Żerań Power Plant while simultaneously supporting one of Warsaw's main cycling routes.
