Shimmy into Chaumont


Blue skies and gorgeous sunshine accompanied us on our short hop to Chaumont today along a beautiful and varied stretch of the canal. The expertise of the 19th century canal engineers is distilled in a mere kilometre in the form of a lock, a two-way tunnel, a canal bridge over the River Marne and a swing bridge. Lobelia passed the agility test with honours and most of her paintwork still intact.

By midday we moored on the outskirts of Chaumont as near as possible to the port.
