Itinerary

Arrival in Strasbourg, settling at the hotel and free time to explore the town.

You will leave Strasbourg along the Rhône-Rhine canal which will lead you along its very pretty cycle track into the heart of the Ried.

You will travel through the landscapes and villages of the Alsatian Ried which is rich in aquatic flora and fauna. Arrival in Colmar the capital of the wine of Alsace and the town of art, by the cycle track of the channel of Colmar.

From Colmar head east to Neuf Brisach, then continue towards the south to reach the gentle village of Ottmarsheim with its 12th century nice church. Next you enter the Hardt’s forest then you go along the Huningue’s canal to reach  Mulhouse. After enjoying the historic town center of Mulhouse, you have numerous museums to visit.

You will leave the banks of the Rhine and the villages of the Sundgau and ride to Ungersheim, until the Ecomusee d’Alsace. You arrive in Guebwiller, nestling at  the foothills of the Vosges.

At the foot of the Vosges nestle the winemaking villages responsible for the reputation of the Alsatian Grand Crus: Eguisheim, Turckheim, Kaysersberg and Riquewihr.

Along the Wine Route you will discover the villages of Ribeauvillé, Bergheim, Andlau and its abbey, Barr and Obernai.

Country roads and cycle tracks will take you from Rosheim and to Avolsheim. From there, along the cycle track on the banks of the Bruche canal, you will reach the capital of Europe: Strasbourg. End or prolongation of your stay.

The route

A moderate bike tour, also for beginners. You cycle mostly on bike paths and sometimes on side streets with less traffic. Two stages are a little bit hilly.
