This old Roman road, now converted into a cycle path, is a delight for people who use it. It is also the ideal place to observe the three surrounding mountain ranges: the Vosges, the Black Forest and the Jura.

Former Hirtzbach station

Highlight • Other

This former station is now private property. That said, observing its charming exterior transports you to a bygone era.

Cycle path along the Ill in Altkirch

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

This beautiful cycle path starts from Altkirch and runs along the Ill for a few moments. It's very soothing to pedal with the rustle of the river as a soundtrack!

Altkirch

Highlight • Settlement

Capital of the Sundgau country, it is good to stroll around. The people are very kind, the shops welcoming and its forest on the hill ideally completes everything.
