Welcome to our little port of “Gigny-sur-Saône”

For 8 years now we run this port at the ancient lock.
The lock run out of use in 1980 after a new one at the small village
“Ormes” about 4 km south of our base was built.

Today our lock is a pleasure port for private boats and of course for our houseboats. The lock chamber is about 180m long and 16m large. With it’s dimensions it offers about 25 boats a mooring place, depending on their length. Inside the lock there is a pontoon with a length of 36m, at the downstream exit of the lock there is another one with 24m length. These pontoons offer a perfect mooring place for all boats during the flood periods.

Along the lock chamber there are three distribution points with two ports for water and electricity each.
