October 23, 2025, Piste Cyclable de l'Ancienne Voie Ferrée

The former railway line between Dannemarie and Pfetterhouse has been redesigned according to the well-known French principle as a perfect "piste cyclable" or "voie vert." Good asphalt, gentle gradients, and, above all, a lack of motorized traffic entice you to glide along at a brisk pace. Often through beautiful forests or through fields, only occasionally do you have to cross a road where there used to be a tunnel or bridge, which has unfortunately been dismantled.

Every lock along the route provides for an unusual background and a good memory of your bike trip. A lot of these locks have a bridge going over them, take the time to branch off the bridge and discover some of the nice villages along the canal.

October 14, 2025, Écluse d'Eglingen

The French and European National Cycleway is a great cycleway winding along side of the Rhine Rhone Canal with very little climbing, for those who do not like to climb. However those who are climbing shy, must be aware of the wind in this area. A lot of the locks still have the former lock man’s house which adds a bit of charm to every lock. One is never alone on this route as there is a constant passing of bicycles, both leisure and racing bikes.

The Rhine Rhone Cycleway is part of the National French and European Cycleway. This stretch of the cycleway has excellent smooth asphalted pavement. There are some nice restaurants and cafés along the way which are sometimes hidden but can easily be found on the map.

The Écluse d’Eglingen is a small, active lock on the Canal du Rhône au Rhin, near the village of Eglingen in the Sundgau region. This spot is popular with cyclists due to its quiet location along the 'EuroVelo 6' and regional cycle routes. The lock is surrounded by greenery and offers a bench and shade, but no facilities.

Nice asphalted cycleway with mostly smooth surface, once in a while a few bumps created by the roots of trees below the surface. The only place where one must slow down and look where one is riding, is 1 km before Altkirch which looks to have been damaged from floods creating potholes and broken asphalt but this is the only real obstacle on this nicely well kept cycleway.

This cycling route for the most part is in very good condition, in some places a bit in need of repair from the roots of trees pushing up the asphalt, at times creating an uneven bumpy surface. The only place where one needs to pay attention is near the last 1 km before Altkrich where it seems the proximity of the cycleway to the stream has been damaged by floods, which has made the surface rough and a lot of potholes, other than that, one can really ride well on this cycleway.
