The Thur rises in the Vosges at the foot of the Ballon d'Alsace and flows for around 53 kilometers through Alsace. It passes through picturesque towns such as Thann and Cernay before flowing into the Ill near Ensisheim. The river shapes the landscape, nature, and recreation alike.

This bike path is very, very nice, and there's even a bench. The bike path is also under trees.

Very nice passage along the Thur river. Hilly route towards Lake Wildenstein-Kruht A tarmac road for all audiences I recommend the lunch break at the Kruht Lake Inn.

The Thur on your left, the vineyard on your right. Magnificent (golden) colours of the vineyard from the end of September.
