Here is an idea for a very nice outing with friends: a short walk to do at the end of the day in summer in order to go picnic and watch the sun set since the Small Balloon (actually, you can also do it at another time if you want, eh! But there is something […]

The Bastberg (Mont Saint-Sébastien in French) is a hill of the Pays de hanau located on the heights of Bouxwiller, whose summit culminates at 326m of altitude. Not very high, but enough to have a very nice view! We are here in the north of Alsace, in a region often neglected by tourists: it is […]

Here is a beautiful bicycle route, the BL 346 loop “La Sarre, between forests and orchards” and located in Alsace bossue. Have you ever heard of Alsace bossue? This corner of Alsace located in the northwest of the region is often neglected by tourists… And often quite unknown to Alsatians, I must say! However, it […]

The pier is located behind the Museum of Textile Printing, a short walk from the train station and the […]
