Northern Alsace by bike in high-end accommodation


We invite you to discover Northern Alsace by bike, far from the beaten track. This region, less popular and less frequented than the "Strasbourg - Mulhouse axis", is nevertheless magnificent. Forget Colmar, Sélestat, Riquewhir, Obernai... and discover towns and villages that are just as charming and authentic. This part of Alsace is also nicknamed "Green Alsace". With dense and extensive green forests, the Northern Vosges Regional Nature Park guarantees unspoiled nature and a rich fauna and flora.

 

Settle into a luxurious and spacious gîte and set off for the day to discover the region by bike. When you return, enjoy the swimming pool or relax in the jacuzzi.

 

Highlights of the stay:

  • High-end accommodation
  • Northern Vosges Regional Nature Park
  • City of Niederbronn-les-Bains
  • Charming villages of Obersteinbach, Lembach and Kutzenhausen
  • Historic sites (1870 war and world wars)
  • Medieval heritage (castles, churches)

 

Day 1: Arrival in Goersdorf
Arrival in Goersdorf and check-in at the 5* gîte. Enjoy the establishment's swimming pool and spa.

 

Several programs to choose from to discover the region. Organize your stay as you wish.

 

Loop 1: Orchard and Remembrance Route (50 km)

The circuit winds between fields and orchards, offering a bucolic setting. In spring, the fruit trees are in bloom and in summer, full of fruit ready to be harvested. Many memorials to the 1870 war mark the route. If you want to know more, visit the Museum of the Battle of August 6, 1870 in Woerth. Poignant exhibitions immerse you in the heart of this historic battle.

 

Loop 2: Between medieval fortresses and mystical forests (45 km)

Take a walk in the wooded hills of the Vosges du Nord Regional Nature Park. On the route, two important medieval fortresses can be explored: Fleckenstein and Wasigenstein castles. Our tip: take the charming marked trails of the Vosges Club to visit them on foot.

 

Loop 3: Discovering the energies of the earth (35 km)

This circuit takes you to discover the natural riches and geothermal forces of the region. Visit Morsbronn-les-Bains and its thermal waters. Pass through Lobsann, a former mining town where asphalt was mainly extracted. It was also in this region that the first oil wells in France and even in Europe were drilled. Everything is remarkably illustrated at the French Petroleum Museum in Merkwiller-Pechelbronn.

 

Loop 4: The Peace Tour (50 km)

This route is a little more demanding due to the many climbs. We recommend a good physical condition. Cross the border with Germany and visit picturesque villages and many monuments dedicated to peace and reconciliation. At the place called "Schwarze Tafel" browse the exhibition on Franco-German friendship. The site "Area 1" and its 85 bunkers, presents the history of the former special weapons camp of the Cold War.

 

Loop 5: Picturesque route through Niederbronn-les-Bains and Gundershoffen (45 km)

Pedal through beautiful landscapes to Niederbronn-les-Bains. In the heart of the Sauer valley, this charming spa town offers a peaceful and revitalizing setting. Then, in Gundershoffen, you will discover the secrets of the famous Aslacian Bretzel at La Fabrique à Bretzel.

 

Day 6: Goersdorf
Your stay ends after breakfast.
