At the Aiguille lock, there are a number of statues made by the lock keeper himself in his spare time. Take a picture with these characters watching the passers-by!

Canal du Midi Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Cycle paths and small trails often lead along the Canal de Midi, which can also be mastered with a normal bicycle. However, an MTB offers more comfort.

Argent-Double Spillway

Highlight • Bridge

The Argent-Double spillway regulates the water level in the canal. It is a real work of art that deserves a stop to take a good look at its architecture and its environment!

Argent-Double aqueduct and spillway

Highlight • Other

This structure, born from the recommendations made by Vauban to improve the Canal du Midi, was built in 1693. It is one of the most original structures on the Canal du Midi with its eleven-arched bridge. The function of this structure is to evacuate excess water from the canal to the Argent-Double River.

This evacuation is done in two ways. The first is by evacuating surface water by means of a spillway (overflow system) at the point where the bank is lowest at the level of the arches of the structure. The water that spills then falls in a cascade to the Argent-Double River below. After the surface water has been evacuated, the second means of evacuation of the structure is the spillway itself, that is to say, a bottom valve, which allows, with the action of man, to evacuate the water through the bottom. During maintenance work carried out in winter, this reach (portion between two locks) is emptied by this means.

A passage on the arches is built in order to maintain a "dry" continuity for the towing horses and avoid the slippery and perilous passage that this spillway presented. (Text from: La Redorte
and works of the Argent-Double)

View over Paraza

Highlight • Settlement

From here you can enjoy a superb view of the town of Paraza, in the Minervois. Pierre-Paul Riquet, the creator of the Canal du Midi, is closely linked to the history of the village, as he stayed there for six years.

Canal du Midi at Marseillette

Highlight • River

I'm following up on Paul's comment:
Yes, the canal is a great immersion in history and the region
However, don't hesitate to make a few forays outside the canal... we made a detour via Revel going up the channel, then climbed a little on the mountain, and it was also very nice.
In summer, the canal is very busy...
