- Difficulty Level
Level 3
XLevel 1: Occasional
Biking – 40-50 km (25-30 mi.) a day over relatively flat terrain with a few small hills—all very manageable for people trying their first biking trip.
Walking – 6-10 km (4-6 mi.) a day on country lanes, footpaths and coastal or forest trails, all on relatively flat terrain, perhaps with an occasional hill.
Level 2: Recreational
Biking – 40-50 km (25-30 mi.) a day over terrain that’s relatively flat but will include inclines and the occasional climb or two.
Walking – 8-12 km (5-7 mi.) a day over relatively flat terrain, with occasional steeper climbs.
Level 3: Enthusiast
Biking – 40-50 km (25-30 mi.) a day in gently rolling countryside, with occasional longer climbs to points that are well worth the effort.
Walking – 11-15 km (7-10 mi.) a day over rolling terrain on a variety of surfaces. Most days, one or two steeper climbs to spectacular viewpoints or places of interest.
Level 4: Avid
Biking – Roughly 50 km (30 mi.) a day in consistently rolling countryside, with repeated climbs and longer options available.
Walking – 11-15 km (7-10 mi.) over terrain that varies between rolling and hilly, with a few steeper climbs.
Level 5: Expert
Biking – 50-60 km (30-45 mi.) a day over both level and tougher, hillier terrain with multiple 100 km (62 mi.) options. The routes are designed for avid cyclists and include plenty of chances to push yourself.
Walking – 11-15 km (7-10 mi.) a day over fairly hilly terrain offering lots of challenges. Routes are along high meadow paths and/or well-maintained cliffside or alpine trails, with a few steep ascents to make you feel invigorated.
Tracing Indomitable Roots
Alsatians are proud—proud to be Alsatian, and proud of what that means. As the stretch between Germany and France, the Alsatians have taken the gastronomy, customs and myths of those who pass through their region. Alsace is the result of years of mixing cultures, people and the indomitable character of the locals. On this adventure, ride winding roads through colourful towns, visit beautiful villages and sample the regional wines.

Begin the day cruising through fruit orchards and forests. Pay a visit to a marquetry workshop and learn about centuries-old woodworking techniques from our friend Jean-Charles.
Head south to Illhaeusern and pass the timbered houses of villages hidden among the vines. Wind your way through the wilderness of the Grand Reid natural park before arriving at the Hôtel des Berges.
Ride towards the Rhein River and enter Germany to explore the Kaisersthul. Pedal along the area's tended bike paths and pause for lunch at your own pace. Enjoy dinner this evening in the town of Colmar.

Hotels
A La Cour d’Alsace, Obernai
Elegant and comfortable, this hotel has tastefully decorated spacious rooms, and a beautiful garden that rubs shoulders with the town ramparts. A La Cour d’Alsace is built as a village within the city and is made of old traditional homes. We stay in the most recently renovated wing, which has an indoor pool. View hotel website »
Hotel des Berges, Illhaeusern
Next door to Auberge de l’Ill, this Relais & Châteaux hotel is the stylish creation of the Haeberlins, the chefs and owners of the world famous restaurant. Set amid willow trees on the banks of the River Ill, it’s hard to imagine a finer hotel. View hotel website »
The events and dinners were superb. We loved the ambiance of the hotels and the incredible service and hospitality of our guides. A very memorable trip!
— David and Judy Baum
