Tour

Welcome to Colmar with its architectural heritage spanning six centuries. Stroll leisurely through the picturesque streets and alleys of the old town, the third largest city in Alsace. Enjoy charm, flair and a first wine in a typical winstub.

You start your first bike tour from Colmar in northern direction and reach Ribeauvillé via Houssen. You cycle through the beautiful wine villages of Riquewihr, Turckheim, Eguisheim and back to Colmar.

Today you have plenty of time to discover Colmar. Be enchanted by the old town, the half-timbered houses, cobbled streets and canals. Visit what is probably Colmar's most famous neighbourhood: La Petite Venise (Little Venice), where you can spend a lot of time strolling through the alleyways. Or you can visit the Unterlinden Museum, the Maison Pfister, the Koïfhus and St Martin's Cathedral. You have the whole day to discover Colmar. End the day with a delicious tarte flambée, baeckeoffe, Alsatian cheese or pretzels and toast to your cycle tour with a glass of Alsatian white wine or a tasty grape juice.

Today's round trip takes you through the villages of Turckheim and Zimmerbach into the Munster Valley. The picturesque landscape of the Vosges massif is characterized by gently rounded hills, high alpine pastures, steep slopes and glacial lakes. The area is famous for its Munster cheese. Take time to visit the "Maison du Fromage" and taste the famous cheese. Pass through small villages on a leisurely bike path back to Colmar.

After the stages through the Alsace wine region, today you will experience the Rhine valley quite comfortably. In Neu - Brisach you will pass the imposing octagonal baroque fortress, which was built around 1700 by Vauban, the master fortress builder of Louis XiV. After crossing the Rhine bridge, the Breisgau region of Germany awaits you. Breisach is known for its cathedral and numerous historic buildings in the old town. As in France, you can visit a Maginot Line bunker from World War II in Marckolsheim. Along the canal you will return to Colmar.

There is much more to discover here in the heart of the Elass. We would be happy to book additional extension nights for you.
