To allow a longer and more exotic ride, it is possible to take a train: in TER of Alsace, bicycles are free!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n This is probably the cutest and most unexpected bike path in Strasbourg. It winds through the plain of Alsace until it reaches Molsheim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Canal de la Bruche flows into the Ill in the Montagne Verte <\/span> neighborhood in Strasbourg. This is where the bike path begins. To reach from the center of Strasbourg: a bike path goes up the Ill de Quai Marc Bloch, south of the Museum of Modern Art. Go south straight! The Canal du Rh\u00f4ne au Rhin and its immense plane trees give it the appearance of a Canal du Midi, in the south of France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n From the Parc du Heyritz, this beautiful and shaded bicycle path will take you easily to S\u00e9lestat or even to Colmar. The route starts in a very urban environment, next to the highway. But the vegetation arrives in a few minutes and the route passes close to many small towns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Along the route and between 5 and 15 km, the stations of Erstein, Benfeld and S\u00e9lestat allow an easy return to Strasbourg, through cycle paths separated from departmental roads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The tour starts in Strasbourg at the Heyritz bridge <\/span>, at the intersection with Quai Louis Pasteur. From Strasbourg to the depths of a cool valley in the Vosges: this is the promise of a beautiful walk along the Canal de la Marne au Rhin!<\/p>\n\n\n\n This long trail starts at the foot of the European Parliament in Strasbourg, which crosses the Alsace plain from east to west for 40 km, before reaching Saverne in about 3 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The cyclist then dives into a cool, shaded valley on the border between Vosges and Vasgovia. And good news for the return trip, this channel is also limited by train: Lutzelbourg, Saverne, Hochfelden stations are easily accessible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If the idea of taking a short walk of around 20 kilometers is more tempting than the long road to Saverne, the stations of Brumath and Mommenheim will allow you to reach Strasbourg easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This walk begins in Strasbourg, in the European Parliament. <\/span> There is a map of cycle paths across Alsace <\/a> and also a specific one for Strasbourg <\/a>, which is gradually installing an express bicycle network, called V\u00e9loStras.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe most bucolic: the Canal de la Bruche<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

There are more trains in Saverne, so the longest route - in one day - goes down to the slope, before returning to Saverne.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAnd finally\u2026<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
