Located at the junction between the Northern and Central Vosges mountains, Phalsbourg offers an ideal setting for mountain biking. The numerous surrounding trails allow for fun on rolling terrain without excessively steep inclines.

The village of Lutzelbourg offers an ideal setting for cycling, whatever the discipline. Accessible by train with your bike, it then allows you to cycle peacefully on the cycle path of the Éclusiers valley, or to venture out on a mountain bike on the first slopes of the Vosges mountains.

The section begins in Hofmuhl when coming from Saverne. The Valley of the Lock Keepers is an 8.2 km long paved path, so not exactly a mountain biking highlight, but very scenic.
