Every lock along the route provides for an unusual background and a good memory of your bike trip. A lot of these locks have a bridge going over them, take the time to branch off the bridge and discover some of the nice villages along the canal.

The French and European National Cycleway is a great cycleway winding along side of the Rhine Rhone Canal with very little climbing, for those who do not like to climb. However those who are climbing shy, must be aware of the wind in this area. A lot of the locks still have the former lock man’s house which adds a bit of charm to every lock. One is never alone on this route as there is a constant passing of bicycles, both leisure and racing bikes.

The Rhine Rhone Cycleway is part of the National French and European Cycleway. This stretch of the cycleway has excellent smooth asphalted pavement. There are some nice restaurants and cafés along the way which are sometimes hidden but can easily be found on the map.

This region has hundreds of small fishponds, once created by monks in the Middle Ages. Today they form a patchwork of water, reeds and forest – a paradise for birds, cyclists and those seeking peace and quiet. You cycle along quiet banks, see herons take flight and enjoy local specialities such as fried carp along the way.

Terminus of the Largue line. This imposing station building from 1910 marked the terminus of the Dannemarie – Pfetterhouse railway line, which was later extended to Bonfol (Switzerland). The station played a key role in the economic development of the village, mainly thanks to the watchmaking industry in the region. Passenger trains ran here until 1965, and it was still used for freight transport until 1970. Today, the building is located along the cycle path on the old railway line, which is now part of the Piste Cyclable de la Largue – a quiet, car-free route through the green Largue valley.

A wonderfully flat and car-free cycle path on a former railway line in the south of Alsace. This route follows the route of the old Largtalbahn and winds through the peaceful Largue valley. Perfectly paved and surrounded by greenery, this is an ideal route for touring without traffic. Along the way you pass charming villages, small bridges and old railway relics.
