Rhine Canal Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

A really fantastic cycle route along the canal. The surface is good and you can enjoy the shade of the trees and the cooler air next to the canal during the warmer months.

In Alsace, its banks have been paved from Marckolsheim to Strasbourg to allow easy cycling between the European capital and Colmar.
