Canal de l'Oise à l'Aisne

The Canal de l'Oise à l'Aisne extends across 48 kilometers, featuring 13 locks that enable vessels to navigate between Abbécourt and Bourg-et-Comin.

The construction of this regional transportation route reached completion in 1890, connecting the Canal latéral à l'Aisne with the Canal latéral à l'Oise.

The waterway flows through multiple French communities, where local residents maintain traditional practices of fishing and recreational boating along its course.

Navigation guides provide details about ports and moorings throughout the canal system, with the Braye-en-Laonnois tunnel stretching 2365 meters between points PK 38 and 40.5.

The canal includes a summit level reservoir at Bassin de Monampteuil near PK 35, serving as a water regulation system for the entire waterway.
