Alsace: a feast for the eyes... and the stomach!

In Alsace, the roads are great, and the food is even better! With its magnificent roads, exceptional wines, and hearty dishes, discover this region in eastern France and its many pleasures. Colmar, for example, home to the Petite Venise district, is the capital of Alsace wines.

Drive to Obernai and admire its remarkable rooftops along France's oldest wine route. In Strasbourg, head for the Grande Île and the famous Notre-Dame Cathedral. Thanks to delicious dishes such as baeckeofe and flammekueche, you can recover from the day's drive around warm and inviting tables laden with food!
