Description

The locks are blasted into the rock and after the locks is a high-edged rock channel.

The flight of locks at Lennartsfors is, Håverud aside, the most impressive in Dalsland Canal. The locks were blasted into the rock and after the locks is a high-edged rock channel. The flight consists of three locks with a total height difference of 7.5 m. Just above the flight locks, a road bridge (bascule bridge) crosses the canal with a clearance of 3 m.
