Elsass Süd, Radkarte: Basel, Colmar, Mulhouse, Oberrhein, Sundgau, Vogesen

Basel – Colmar – Mulhouse – Oberrhein – Sundgau – Vogesen Alsace is not only a paradise for gourmets and wine connoisseurs - this Upper Rhine region is also extremely varied in terms of landscape and offers a suitable tour for every cyclist. The landscape and former region in eastern France extends over the western part of the Upper Rhine Plain and extends in the northwest with the crooked Alsace to the Lorraine plateau. Alsace borders Germany to the north and east and Switzerland to the south. Today Alsace belongs to the Grand Est region and the southern part to the Haut-Rhin department. For connoisseurs, a pleasurable round trip through the romantic wine villages in the picturesque, fertile foothills is tempting. The Swiss cultural city of Basel and the quiet, almost untouched Sundgau await your visit. Also worth seeing are Colmar (capital of Alsatian wine and listed old town), the second largest city in Alsace Mulhouse and the old imperial city of Sélestat. The former towpaths along the waterways in the Upper Rhine Plain are ideal for families with children, e.g. on the Rhine-Rhône Canal on the EuroVelo 6. Sporty cyclists are challenged on mountain tours in the Vosges and in the Black Forest (Route Verte and Southern Black Forest cycle path). and kilometer hunters can prove their long-distance suitability on the left and right banks of the Rhine on the Rhine cycle path.
