Welcome to the heart of Alsace, a land where culture and nature gently intertwine, between golden vineyards, picturesque villages and rolling forests. This center-based cycling tour around Colmar invites you to explore the wonders of this region, with each day a new adventure through charming Alsacian villages such as Eguisheim, Riquewihr and Ribeauvillé. Let yourself be amazed by the scents of the vineyards, the panoramas of the Vosges mountains and the authentic atmosphere of Alsace, while enjoying quiet bike rides. An unforgettable experience where each loop tour brings you back to the warm center of Colmar, while offering you always different treasures.

  • The magnificent vineyards around the wine capital of Alsace
  • The medieval town of Neuf-Brisach

 

Day 1: Arrival in Colmar
Check into your hotel. Enjoy your free time to stroll around the historic center and discover the medieval streets and pretty flower-filled canals. You should definitely go and admire the Isenheim altarpiece, a masterpiece of the Rhenish Renaissance. It is located in the chapel of the Unterlinden Museum, a unmissed visit for art and culture lovers.

 

Day 2: Wine Villages Loop (45 or 60 km)

Today, two options are possible. Leave Colmar and take the famous Alsace Wine Route. The route takes you through splendid wine villages such as Ribeauvillé, Hunawihr, Riquewihr or Kientzheim, which have made the reputation of Alsacian great wines. The long option extends the pleasure to Turckheim and Eguisheim, which each year hold their place among "The Most Beautiful Villages of France".

 

Day 3: Day of rest

Stay in Colmar to enjoy the city or go on cultural or gastronomic visits. If you want a change of scenery, Strasbourg is only 30 minutes away by train. Many activities are also possible there.

 

Day 4: The Munster Valley (45 km)

Head west towards the city of Munster. You cycle along the river of the same name and can taste the cheese that is one of the culinary emblems of the region. Don't hesitate to accompany it with a glass of Gewurtztraminer or Pinot Gris, two other local specialties. Return to Colmar by the cycle path in the heart of the valley.

 

Day 5: Neuf-Brisach and Vieux Brisach, between Germany and the Rhine Valley (70 km)

This stage leads you to the East of Colmar. Cycle towards Neuf-Brisach, which deserves a first stop. This medieval village, with its Vauban fortress, is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. After crossing the Rhine and the border, you will visit the village of Vieux-Brisach (Breisach am Rhein in German). Its cathedral, its city center and its picturesque alleys are worththe visit. Continue your route along the Rhine before cycling back to France in Marckolsheim. You can visit a fortified structure of the Maginot Line there. Return to Colmar by the Canal du Rhin cycle path.
