The ascent to the Col du Firstplan from Soultzbach-les-Bains is steady. The road surface is good and occasionally a tuned car whizzes past. There are few lay-bys on the roadside for a short stop, but at the top of the Col there is a picnic area.

Excellent bakery, I recommend the corn bread as well as the Süweckla, a type of small crispy bread. The baguettes are just as delicious. Not to be missed!

Beautiful small town with a great village square, where there is always a party on Wednesdays in the summer. The cafe l´etang des Pains is highly recommended. You can have breakfast and enjoy coffee and cake there, or buy a packed lunch for hikers... very delicious!

Met the mayor of the town today when I wanted to refill my bottles, he told me not to drink the water. This also applies to the other wells in town. I drank two bottles of it, everything was fine.

The cycle path from Eguisheim to Wettolsheim is on the Euro Vélo 5 (EV 5) route, as well as on the Véloroute Vignoble VV11. It runs parallel to the departmental road D83. In the village of Eguisheim, it is best to take the outer ring on the D514, the Rue du Traminer, until the dead-end street on the right, the Rue de Colmar, which you turn into. You continue straight ahead and are now on the EV5 or VV11. The path is well signposted. If after a short distance you see the Antonine Stoffel winery on your left, you are on the right track. Shortly after, you leave Eguisheim and the cycle path climbs slightly over a vineyard. On the descent, continue straight ahead, and you will already see Wettolsheim.
