European Waterways invites travellers in 2026 to slow down, unwind and explore the beauty of La France Profonde – the “Hidden Heart of France.” With a new “off the beaten track”  itinerary, guests are welcomed aboard L’Art de Vivre to explore the upper reaches of the Nivernais Canal and the surrounding Morvan Hills, a national park known as the “green lung” of Burgundy. Cruise along the winding waterway through narrow tunnels, hand operated bridges and staircases of locks with ivy covered lockhouses on a journey rarely taken by modern travellers.
