No.2 cross-border cycle route covering 42km. Take some time to discover the more unusual aspects of Alsace.

One of a kind in Europe! After taking in these marvellous trails, continue your stroll by crossing the bridge at Weisweil until you reach the Ile de Rhinau on the French side. The frequent Rhine floods give the heavily protected natural environment a fascinating array of flora and fauna.
