The Seine is a 776 km long river and an important
commercial waterway within the Paris Basin in the north of France. It rises at Source-Seine,
30 kilometers northwest of Dijon in northeastern France in the Langres plateau,
flowing through Paris and into the English Channel at Le Havre. It is navigable by ocean-going vessels as far
as Rouen, 120 km from the sea. Over
60% of its length, as far as Burgundy, is negotiable by commercial riverboats
and nearly its whole length is available for recreational boating. Source
