The many charms of Franche-Comté

Dole, ancient capital of la Comté, doorway to the Jura and birthplace of Pasteur, situated in the heart of a marvellous region gifted with one of the most beautiful navigation areas offering a very large choice of cruising : le canal du Rhône to the Rhin (in fact it's the Doubs) with Besançon and citadel of Vauban, Baume les Dames, the charm of Comtois villages and market towns, wild beauty of fauna and flora in the superb deeply embanked valleys. You can cruise upstream one way to Port sur Saône or Champigny-Lès-Langres or the Burgundy canals beyond Saint-Jean-de-Losne.

• a crossroads of rivers for an exceptional choice of cruises
