| Itinerary | ||||||
| Day 1: Arrive in Colmar Colmar is reached by train from Strasbourg, which is serviced by high-speed train. Alternatively, you can fly to Basel/Mulhouse International Airport and catch a direct regional train. Your hotel is conveniently located right outside Colmar. This is where you’ll meet our representative who will outfit you with bikes and personally give you all the necessary materials. Colmar’s extensive bicycle network will allow you to ride safely to the center of town in a matter of minutes. |
||||||
| Day 2: Colmar – Turckheim (22 km or 14 miles) Venturing away from Colmar you will cycle on bikeways and traffic-free roads through the Ried, or low-level lands, before reaching the Alsatian wine-making area, boasting typical and beautiful villages. One place definitely not to miss is Eguisheim, a village so pretty that it has been elected as “One of France’s Prettiest”. Restricted traffic makes this virtually traffic–free village of cobbled streets and half-timbered houses an island of beauty and silence, best enjoyed from a café’s terrace sipping a glass of Riesling. A bit further on and you’ll be in Turckheim, your destination for the day. |
||||||
| Day 3: Turckheim – Selestat (35 km or 21 miles) If you haven’t had a chance to walk through the historic part of Turckheim, make sure you do so before hopping on your bike and departing. The day will then be filled with colorful villages, each one more beautiful than the last! Don’t expect to average your usual speed - Kaysersberg, Riquewihr, and Ribeauvillé are bound to stop you…and keep you mesmerized and awestruck by so much beauty! Luckily, you only have 40 km to ride! Your hotel for the night is located in the historic town of Selestat. |
||||||
| Day 4: Selestat – Colmar (38 km or 24 miles) Cycling through the Ried and back to Colmar on very quiet roads will allow you to discover some small, rural, and authentic villages. Far from the usual tourist itineraries, these picturesque villages will provide you with welcome interest points and respite before reaching Colmar, where your trip comes to an end. |
