Parc du Près-la-Rose

Highlight • Other

The cycle path runs through Le Près-La-Rose along the canal. It's a large, 10-hectare park filled with trees and flowers (over 100 varieties) where you can stroll and wander along the banks of the Allan River or get lost in the hedge maze. There's also a skate park. The park also houses the Pavillon des Sciences (a center for scientific, technical, and industrial culture), exhibitions, and play areas for children.

Ballon d'Alsace

Highlight • Natural Monument

Here René Pottier conquered the first pass of the Tour de France on July 11, 1905. The Ballon d'Alsace then remained unrivaled for five years - until the much harder passes in the Pyrenees were discovered.

At 1,247 meters, the pass is by no means the highest in the Vosges and today no one would include it on the list of important passes - but there is still a certain magic about it.

Saint Christopher Cathedral

Highlight • Other

In 1930 the church was listed as Monument historique. In 1952, it was by Pope Pius XII. the title of a Basilica minor awarded. With the creation of the diocese of Belfort-Montbéliard, the church was elevated to a cathedral in 1979. Wikipedia

Relatively new railway cycle path and beautiful restored bridge.
The bollards are a bit too close together, but I still managed to get through.
