Overview

Alsace is a region unlike anywhere else in France. Nestled between the Vosges Mountains and the Rhine, its half-timbered villages, feudal castle ruins and world-class vineyards create a landscape that feels lifted from a fairytale. The trails follow the famous Route des Vins through medieval villages like Riquewihr, Ribeauvillé and Kaysersberg, with wine tastings at family-run cellars a natural part of the day. Above the vines, forested ridges lead to panoramic fortresses like Haut-Koenigsbourg. Each night ends in handpicked accommodation, where Alsatian warmth and hospitality are as memorable as the walking.
