Also known as the "Nancy Branch" or the "Cayenne Valley" by the boatmen, who do not particularly like having to cross 18 locks for a journey of 10 km. The Nancy Canal was closed following the collapse of a dike at PK8. It was reopened in 2012 and it is again possible to loop around Nancy by taking the Moselle, the Marne to Rhine canal, then this little junction canal.
