A beautiful view. The rest area is also frequently used by pilgrims on the Way of St. James.

A very nice hike and view from the tower. There are signs at the top pointing out the sights you can see in the distance. It wobbles slightly at the very top.

This region has hundreds of small fishponds, once created by monks in the Middle Ages. Today they form a patchwork of water, reeds and forest – a paradise for birds, cyclists and those seeking peace and quiet. You cycle along quiet banks, see herons take flight and enjoy local specialities such as fried carp along the way.

Le Moulin Bas is a former grain mill and sawmill with roots dating back to at least 1592. The current buildings date partly from the 19th century, but also incorporate older features, including a pediment bearing the date 1604. The mill was water-powered and remained active until after the First World War, when it was converted into a sawmill. Inside, the original cogs, beffroi and bore of the water wheel are still visible – now integrated into the dining room of the restaurant that now occupies the premises.

Right next to the Largue cycle path lies this cosy nature centre in Altenach. You will find a short educational walk, a playground, picnic benches and a small exhibition about the nature of Alsace. Ideal to stretch your legs, have a bite to eat or go exploring with children. Free admission and open on Sunday afternoons in the summer months.

Metal tower with steep stairs. Good railing for safe climbing up and down. The top level is accessible via a vertical ladder. Also easy to use, but only if you can handle the height.
