Between the Vosges mountains and the Rhine valley, Alsace is a land of contrasts that abounds in riches. In the heart of the Grand Est region, it carefully preserves a unique heritage where classified monuments, flowery villages, vineyards and gastronomy are all present and which makes all its visitors happy.

During your stay in Alsace, several cities are among the must-see. Start with the Alsatian capital, Strasbourg, to admire its sumptuous Gothic cathedral, its Rohan palace and its Petite France district, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Then go to Mulhouse and enjoy a walk in its old town to discover the old town hall, the Saint-Etienne temple and the Mieg house. But also discover Colmar which concentrates all the characteristics of the Alsatian cities (half-timbered houses, flowered lanes, sweetness of life in its district of the Small Venice), Haguenau for its door of Wissembourg, Saverne for its castle of Rohan, Sélestat for its masterpieces of Romanesque and Gothic architecture.

After these visits, discover the natural heritage of the region. An excellent way to appreciate it is to follow the Alsace Wine Route. Over 200 kilometers, between Marlenheim and Thann, you will be able to contemplate superb hilly landscapes while tasting real nectars within the domains. But also take advantage of this road to visit the many exceptional villages along the way. Make a stop in Obernai (belfry, wheat market, Sainte-Odile fountain), in Molsheim (Jesuit church, former Carthusian monastery) and then make a short trip to the superb Haut-Koenigsbourg castle. Continue your enchanting journey with excursions to Bergheim, Ribeauvillé, Kayserberg, Éguisheim or Riquewihr.

But Alsace has other great natural spaces. Between the Vosges du Nord and the Ballons des Vosges parks, you will be able to fulfill all your desires of escape. In winter, take advantage of the numerous alpine and Nordic ski resorts to enjoy the joys of skiing. On sunny days, take the hiking trails (12,000 kilometers throughout the region) or the bicycle paths (2,500 kilometers) to discover the Route des Crêtes, the Grand Ballon or the Hohneck. Also take the time to discover all the richness of the land by tasting the flavors of Alsatian cuisine: sauerkraut, baeckoeffe, coq au riesling, flammekueche, pretzel, fleischnakas, bibeleskaes, kouglof...
