A towpath, or "chemin de halage," which runs alongside the river or canal, was an indispensable part of the transportation infrastructure in earlier times. Before ships could be propelled by motors, horses walked along the bank, pulling the vessel against the current. This was called "treideln," and that's how towpaths got their name, which has been passed down to this day. Where these paths, located directly on the riverbank, have been preserved, they are popular with hikers and cyclists.
