Châtel Censoir – Chitry-les-Mines – Corbigny – Châtel Censoir
From the picturesque port of Châtel Censoir, follow the beautiful Canal du Nivernais as it winds its way through the woodland and pastures of the peaceful Morvan countryside. Silver was mined in Renaissance times around the hills of Chitry-les-Mines and 17th century Corbigny was once defended by 14 towers – the remains of one can still be seen today. Stop en route at the many villages to enjoy delicious Burgundy cuisine and wines.
Base manager Michael Chadney welcomes you to Chatel-Censoir, your gateway to what many consider to be the most beautiful and romantic of all French canals, the Canal du Nivernais. Its shady banks and peaceful seclusion draw you into a dreamworld far, far from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and you’ll find life on board a very relaxing experience!
