Overview

This route makes a genuine circuit of the Dreiländereck, the three-border corner where France, Germany and Switzerland meet, from Freiburg down through Colmar and Mulhouse to the Basel agglomeration and back.

It's a considered introduction to a part of Europe that rarely gets a whole week to itself - easy riding, three distinct cultures, and plenty of good food and wine along the way.

  • The Alsace Wine Route and its typical villages
  • Cycle paths along the Wine Route and the Rhine and its canals
  • Neuf-Brisach's UNESCO World Heritage fortifications
  • A warm welcome from your hosts along the way
