The Cruising Association has released the 2025 edition of ‘Cruising the Inland Waterways of France and Belgium’, its longest-established inland waterways cruising guide.
Now in its 29th edition, this essential guide has been expanded to include maps of every waterway in France and Belgium, with updated information on more than 250 mooring locations. Alongside detailed coverage for France and Belgium, it also includes information on marina and quay mooring options in Luxembourg.
Firmly established as one of the most comprehensive resources for inland waterways cruising in France and Belgium, the guide is updated annually by members of the CA’s European Inland Waterways Section, who actively cruise the waterways.
In an extensive introduction and information section, the guide explains the character of the various waterways, the challenges to overcome, the equipment needed, licences and regulations, sources of further information, ‘rules of the road’ and many other items of interest.
Cruising the Inland Waterways of France and Belgium can be purchased for £35 in either digital or print format from the CA online shop.
The guide also offers a 15 per cent discount on the first year’s CA membership for new members who join by 31 December 2025. CA member benefits include access to a free digital edition of the guide (along with 24 other inland waterways guides) and the CA CAptain’s Mate app.
