Alsace in your eyes... and in your stomach!
In Alsace, we cycle well, and we eat even better! Between magnificent roads, exceptional wines and delicious food, discover this region located in the east of France and its many pleasures. Colmar, for example, which is home to the Little Venice district, is the capital of Alsace wines.
Ride to Obernai and see its remarkable roofs along the oldest wine route in France. In Strasbourg, head for the Grande Île and the famous Notre-Dame Cathedral. Thanks to tasty dishes like baeckeofe or flammekueche, you can recover from the day's journey around warm and beautifully furnished tables!
