Alsace: 1st cycling region in France.
Traced parallel to the Alsace Wine Route, the Véloroute du Vignoble runs peacefully along the mountainside, crosses around a hundred wine-growing towns and passes through around fifty terroirs.
A diversity that delights cycling enthusiasts! Vines as far as the eye can see and the greatest castles of Alsace in the background… no doubt, from Dieffenthal to Orschwiller, the landscape is a spectacle. Along the way, you’ll discover Scherwiller, capital of Riesling, and its charming village of a hundred washhouses; Châtenois and its fortified town steeped in history; and Kintzheim and its ancient medieval castle, now home to the world’s largest birds of prey.
Where to rent your bike?
From May to September, the Kintzheim tourist office has electrically-assisted bicycles available for hire for half a day, a day or even a few days. *** Sélestat Haut-Koenigsbourg Tourisme
