Nestled in the forest and easily accessible (halfway between Strasbourg and Colmar), Hohwald is an ideal stopover for city dwellers in need of greenery… and this has probably been the case for more than a century, as the village smells like a Belle Epoque resort, in its past glory! No doubt, whether you are looking […]

The bicycle path of the Bruche Canal is, I believe, the first bicycle path in Alsace that I have ridden. Since then, I’ve done it many (many) times, either when I went to from Strasbourg to Colmar by bike or on the occasion of small Sunday rides. The Bruche Canal cycle route runs from Strasbourg […]

L’Ecomusée d’Alsace is a museum entirely dedicated to the Alsatian culture. Boring? On the contrary, the ecomuseum is extremely lively.
