It follows the north shore of the Saint Lawrence River between Pointe-des-Cascades and Coteaux-Landing, bypassing the rapids between Lake Saint-Louis and Lake Saint-Francis. It superseded the first Beauharnois Canal which was on the south shore of the Saint Lawrence. It is 23 kilometres (14 mi) long and had a 4.3 metres (14.1 ft) draught. Five locks measuring 85.3 m (280 ft) x 14 m (46 ft) give a total rise of 25 meters (82 ft). The Soulanges Canal was named after the Soulanges Seigneury which was granted in 1702 by Governor Louis-Hector de Calliere to Pierre-Jacques de Joybert, Knight and Lord of Soulanges.
