In the south the path follows the Rhône–Rhine Canal and its locks; further north it runs along the flood dyke through the Rhine forests. Along the way: the Three Countries Bridge at Huningue, the octagonal church at Ottmarsheim, the UNESCO-listed citadel of Neuf-Brisach, then Strasbourg.
💡 Good to know
Between Strasbourg and Lauterbourg the route uses more shared minor roads, so take care with children. On regional trains, reserve a bike space where possible, and download the official GPX track before you set off.
