Navicarte are the canal and river route charts, which detail all the stopping places, locks, fuel points, marinas, port de plaisance and tourist information.

Whilst it would be just possible to do the trip only with my book

'The French Canal Routes to the Mediterranean'

and the 'Navicarte #21 - chart of all French navigable waters,'

it would be an awful lot less stressful and more enjoyable, to use the relevant:-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Navicarte/Fluviacarte maps & charts

 for the entire trip from the mouth of the Seine to the Mediterranean in detail.
