The Canal latéral à l'Aisne is a canal in northern France, which connects Vieux-lès-Asfeld to Condé-sur-Aisne. It runs alongside the Aisne River. Connections are also made with Canal de l'Oise à l'Aisne in Bourg-et-Comin and Canal de l'Aisne à la Marne at Berry-au-Bac.
PK shown here is from east to west.
A The exact starting coordinates are hard to compute when two canals merge like this. This point is midpoint between the two cities Vieux-lès-Asfeld and Asfeld as shown on this reference. But, I fear it is south of Vieux-lès-Asfeld??
