Holiday information

 

A cycling holiday in Alsace

This holiday explores the very heart of Alsace. Staying in three welcoming hotels – in Eguisheim, Kaysersberg and Bergheim – you are ideally located to discover this fascinating and beautiful area, rich in culture, gastronomy and heritage, by bicycle. Our routes are flexible – meander along quiet country backroads through pretty villages or opt for a more challenging day by cycling up to visit one of the many hill-top châteaux that boast magnificent views across the valley.
The valleys are dotted with picturesque villages and crisscrossed with country lanes, which, when combined with comfortable accommodation and fine traditions of gastronomy and hospitality, provide all the ingredients for a wonderful discovery on two wheels.

Itinerary

  • Arrival in Eguisheim
    Night 1: at Hostellerie de la Ferme du Pape (the first of two nights here).
    As your first night's accommodation is on the day of travel, Day 1 is your first day of cycling.
  • Choice of routes from Eguisheim: 29km or 40km

    Circular route from Eguisheim: 29km
    Take time to explore the town before setting out on your bike. Eguisheim was the birthplace of wine-growing in Alsace and its magnificent cobblestone streets of 16th and 17th-century timberframe houses radiate out from the village square in concentric rings. Our suggested cycle ride is a varied route to the south of the town through lovely forests, vineyards and floral villages which makes a good introduction to the many delights which this region has to offer.

    Circular route from Eguisheim via Turckheim: 40km
    A longer option follows undulating countryside first to Turckheim, whose beauty belies a poignant World War II tragedy, and then heads along pleasant riverside tracks to historic Munster, named by the Irish monks who founded an abbey here in the 17th century, and famed for the only cheese produced in Alsace.

    Circular route from Eguisheim: 29km
    Circular route from Eguisheim via Turckheim: 40km
  • Eguisheim to Kaysersberg: 25km; shorter option: 22.5km
    On leaving Eguisheim, a delightful riverside route leads into the centre of historic Colmar, a beautiful city with a network of canals lined with pastel-coloured houses adorned with spectacular flower displays. Take time to explore before continuing through vineyards to Kaysersberg, where you stay at the Hotel Les Remparts for one night. If you have spent a long time visiting Colmar, you may like to follow our shorter, more direct route from here to Kaysersberg.
    Route from Eguisheim to Kaysersberg
    Eguisheim to Kaysersberg: 25km
    Eguisheim to Kaysersberg shorter option: 22.5km
  • Kaysersberg to Bergheim: 19km; longer option: 31km; direct route: 15km
    Leaving Kaysersberg on your bike, you set out along quiet country lanes, enjoying lovely views to the west across rolling vineyards towards the Vosges Mountains beyond. Our preferred option passes through vineyards and the wine villages of Bennwihr and Beblenheim to reach Hunawihr, where you can visit a stork sanctuary and butterfly house. Alternatively, for different scenery, take the longer option which includes a meander through the dappled forest of Colmar before reaching the pretty riverside village of Illhaeusern – the perfect spot for lunch. There is a third, more direct, route if you would prefer an easier day.  Whichever of the three routes you choose, your destination is the fortified town of Bergheim, where you stay for the next two nights at La Cour du Bailli, a working domaine viticole.
    Kaysersberg to Bergheim: 19km
    Kaysersberg to Bergheim longer option: 31km
    Visit the stork sanctuary in Hunawihr
    Kaysersberg to Bergheim direct route: 15km
  • Out-and-back cycle from Bergheim: 35km; longer option: 44km
    This easy two-wheeled option is a leisurely there-and-back ride north to the flower-filled town of Dambach-la-Ville, cycling beneath imposing castles perched on rocky outcrops. Take time to relax and, perhaps, stop for a lunch of local game and Munster cheese accompanied by a chilled Gewürztraminer or Tokay Pinot Gris. On your way back, you may wish to visit the castle at Kintzheim which holds spectacular demonstrations of free-flying birds of prey.
    For those who prefer a longer day in the saddle, there is the option to continue beyond Dambach-la-Ville to the highest point of the holiday before a well-earned downhill stretch overlooking the very pretty Giessen Valley, after which you follow an ancient Roman trading route (now a cycle path) through woodland.

    Out-and-back cycle from Bergheim: 35km
    Out-and-back cycle from Bergheim longer option: 44km
  • Bergheim to Kaysersberg: 15km
    Your final day's cycling is a fitting end to your discovery of Alsace. The route is short but hilly and you really will earn the views as you pass through the jewels of La Route des Vins: Ribeauvillé, with its three ruined castles; medieval Riquewihr, perhaps the most renowned and attractive of all the Alsatian wine villages; and Hunawihr, where the views from the fortified hill-top church extend all the way to the Alps. En route you have the chance to visit a butterfly pavilion and a remarkable stork sanctuary where you get up close to this striking bird, the emblem of Alsace. You return to the cobbled streets of charming Kaysersberg for your final night at the Hotel Les Remparts.

    This list of flight options should be used as a guide only, and you should check each airline’s website for current routes, frequency and schedules. Not all flights operate daily, and may not run for the entire season. You should also heed the latest flight arrival time and earliest flight departure time stated in the connecting travel section, as it may not be possible to arrange connecting travel outside these times. Please do not book your flights until we have confirmed your accommodation to you. Alternatively, our expert reservations team will be happy to offer advice and to make flight bookings for you for any of the options listed above except those operated by Ryanair. We charge £35 per person for our flight booking service (£60 for India and Nepal). Your flights are then covered by our package-booking conditions, which give you greater protection in the event of delay or cancellation, as well as providing ATOL cover.

  • Prices below are based on 2 people travelling together. If you are travelling solo or as a party of 3 or more and our arrangements include a taxi, please contact us for prices; additional passengers often pay less.

    Unless otherwise stated, connecting travel by rail or bus tends to be from the city centre station, rather than from its airport, and connections between the two should be paid for locally.

    A superb holiday with beautiful unspoilt scenery, stunning villages and excellent e-bikes that made the cycling effortless.

    Tips: We found the best way to follow the routes was by using a phone on the handlebars to save keep stopping to look at notes. Most restaurants in Kaysersberg were closed on Monday night, however we found Restaurant Le Kasersberg open and the food was excellent with waterside dining. It is closed on Wednesdays and Thursdays though.

    Great time of year to go as we saw the grape harvest in full flow, but be prepared for changes in the weather.  Fantastic opportunities for wine tasting, and they didn't seem to mind we could buy only 1 or 2 bottles.  Local people very helpful and welcoming. Cycling on the little roads in the vineyards with hardly any traffic and views of the Vosges and the Black Forest mountains on the other side was truly idyllic.

    We would highly rate Inntravel and the local cycle company in this area for the exceptional help they gave us when we had various problems with our bikes early on in the week and also after my daughter had a cycling accident on the last day which resulted in her being taken to hospital (fortunately it was all fine thanks to her wearing a helmet). On each occasion we rang Inntravel who immediately arranged for the cycle company to come and rescue us. Aside from the various issues mentioned we thoroughly enjoyed the scenery, beautiful villages, the friendly French people and the wines of the Alsace.

    This was a great holiday. Everything worked perfectly and the accuracy and design of the routes couldn’t be faulted. It was an idyllic week rolling through sunlit vineyards and stopping at cafes in pretty villages or picnicking by tranquil rivers. A comfortable hotel and a good meal at the end of the day and our luggage delivered - who could ask for more. Particularly loved all the details in the route notes for interesting diversions and historical information. We’re planning our next one!

    Overall we loved the Walking Lake Lucerne hiking holiday, and would not hesitate doing another similar holiday.

    However, our experience with the Alsace Cycling holiday was not so good, primarily due to being provided with inappropriate bicycles. Also, Bergheim was too quiet a town, with not one restaurant open on the second day of our stay there. We would probably not recommend this holiday unless these issues were addressed.

    All arrangements and communications with Inntravel were excellent, and we would be more than happy to use them again in the future.

    Inntravel
    response

    Thank you for writing a review. We are delighted that you enjoyed your time in Lake Lucerne but are sorry to hear that Alsace was not so successful.

    We have received a number of comments about some of the towns and villages in Alsace being particularly quiet in June this year and we are greatly surprised by this; it is usually a pleasantly lively and bustling area throughout the entire Summer season.

    With regards to the bikes, please do contact us during your holiday in future if there is a similar problem and we will do our utmost to resolve it. The cycle hire company we work with in Alsace is very quick to respond and usually receives great feedback. We are sure that they would have provided replacement, smaller-sized bikes for you, if they had known that you were struggling with their size.
 

FAQs

If you have any questions relating to this or any other Inntravel holiday, our friendly travel experts will be happy to help. You might also find our General FAQs section helpful.
  • If your holiday plans go awry because of Coronavirus, rest assured that we’ll do right by you. Since the start of the pandemic, our flexible booking policy and prompt issuing of refunds to customers who prefer not to defer their holiday have earned us high praise in the national press.
  • We sincerely hope that your holiday experience will be as enjoyable as it would have been before the pandemic – cycling holidays are ideal in these times of social distancing, and we’re not operating holidays if the key highlights can no longer be delivered – but, naturally, there will be some changes to ensure your and other people’s safety, not least taking tests before and after your holiday for many destinations.

  • Our chosen bike rental shop will provide you with a hybrid bike with 18 gears; a waterproof map case on handlebars; panniers/saddlebags; pump; puncture repair kit; and a lock. Electric bikes are available as an upgrade (see price panel), subject to availability, and must be requested at the time of booking.
  • While we would always recommend that you take your own well-fitting helmet, they can be hired locally for a small fee. Please let us know at the time of booking if you would like to hire a helmet.
  • Yes, we will provide GPX tracks for this holiday prior to departure so that you can follow your route on your smartphone or dedicated GPS device if you wish. (We also provide maps and our tried-and-tested route notes, which remain the principal means of navigation).
  • We’ll send you route notes and maps 2-3 weeks before your holiday. The route notes not only contain directions to get from hotel to hotel, but also include practical information about places of interest and eateries along each route, plus cultural information about the area. On mornings when you are moving between hotels, you leave your luggage in reception as you leave, and it will be transferred ahead to your next accommodation so that all you need to take with you are a camera, sun cream, drinks, food and waterproofs.
  • Bike insurance is not included in the price of our cycling holidays, and unfortunately we can't supply such insurance. Some general travel insurance policies can or do provide cover for rented bikes, so it's worth seeing if your policy is one of these. The most important thing is to ensure that you take good care of your bike (you are responsible for damage to or loss of it while it is hired to you), always being careful to lock it up, ideally to an immovable object, and removing all easy-to-steal accessories whenever you leave it unattended.
  • We can book a wide range of routes from the UK with a variety of airlines (but not, currently, with Ryanair). As well as being more convenient for you to book all elements of your holiday together, it also means that we’ll accept liability for your travel arrangements, so if things go wrong, such as the airline going bust, we’ll make suitable alternative arrangements for you. For Europe, there’s a £35 booking fee per person (£15 for children aged 2-11). For India and Nepal, the booking fee is £60 per person. More information on flights >
  • We can’t book flights that originate outside the UK, but if you wanted to book your own flights to London (or elsewhere in the UK), we can make all onward travel arrangements (including flights) from there. Alternatively, if you are booking your own flights to an airport in continental Europe that’s appropriate for your holiday, we can book onward rail travel and/or taxis. More information about how we can tailor holidays for customers outside the UK >
  • Since our holidays are self-guided, we recommend calling us for a chat about your plans before making a booking, especially if it’s the first time you’ve booked with us.
    The price panel shows the supplement for a single room and also the single traveller charge (this covers (luggage) transfers and other costs which are usually shared between two people).
  • Once you’ve decided on your exact itinerary (our travel experts will be happy to offer advice), you need to provide us with your party’s details, either by phone or via our booking form. At this point we also ask you to pay a deposit so that we can secure a room for you immediately on confirming availability with the hotel(s). If it turns out that we can’t secure the accommodation for the holiday you’ve requested, or offer an acceptable alternative, we’ll refund your deposit promptly and in full. After booking your accommodation and other key elements, we'll then book your travel (or you can do so if you’re making your own arrangements) and send you a Booking Confirmation and Invoice.

  • Yes, it’s something we insist on, even for holidays in the UK. The vast majority of holidays go smoothly, but when things go wrong, it can be expensive to put them right. Buying a new pair of walking boots after your suitcase is stolen mightn’t seem so bad, but the bill for being airlifted down from a mountain with a broken leg or flown home while still recovering from an illness or accident can cost tens of thousands of pounds.

    You don’t have to take out our recommended travel insurance policy (if you live outside the UK you’ll definitely need to make your own arrangements, as the policy is only for UK residents), but you do need to make sure that you’re covered for medical emergencies – including falling ill with Covid-19 while on holiday – and repatriation. We also recommend that you are covered for other eventualities, such as cancellation and loss of luggage and passports.

    We'll ask you for the details of your policy (insurer, policy number and medical emergency phone number) so that we can help out if the worst happens while you are on holiday. It's up to you, though, to check that your policy covers the activities you'll be doing on holiday and that it is adequate for your own individual needs; we don't check alternative policies.
  • It is your responsibility to ensure you are in possession of the correct travel documents, with the correct validity. If you’re a UK citizen, you need a full British passport to travel to France, but not a visa. If you are a citizen of another country, you’ll need to check requirements with the national embassy or your own consulate.

    Current information regarding vaccinations and travel health advice for UK citizens can be found through the Travel Health Pro website. You must make sure you have adequate insurance cover for illness, accidents and repatriation (see the insurance question). You should also apply for a Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) if your EHIC has expired (if you have a still-valid EHIC, you can use this until it expires).
