Two Minutes of Slow in Alsace, France

This much overlooked area is both fascinating and beautiful, rich in culture, gastronomy and heritage, with fairy tale castles and picturesque villages. What’s not to love about the Alsace?

If seeing the Alsace on two wheels is more your thing, then how about our wonderful gentle self-guided cycling holiday; following leisurely routes along the beautiful Alsace Wine Route – take quiet country roads, cycle paths and vineyard tracks staying in three welcoming hotels in Equisheim, Kayersberg and Bergheim – ideally located to discover the fascinating and beautiful area. The cycle routes are flexible with options to opt for longer more challenging days by cycling up to hill-top châteaux that boast magnificent views across the valley. A really wonderful discovery on two wheels. https://www.inntravel.co.uk/Holidays/...
This small corner of France oozes charm: amid a rolling carpet of assiduously tended vines are impossibly pretty villages with half-timbered buildings that sprout colourful displays of geraniums and where remarkable storks’ nests are delicately balanced on pointed church spires. The forested slopes to the west, sprinkled with crumbling castles and criss-crossed by attractive walking trails, only add to the allure; while the celebrated gastronomy – with dishes such as ham hock and steaming choucroute as likely to be served with a foaming glass of beer as a luscious local wine – provides ample reward for a walking adventure par excellence. If you would like to combine our walking and cycling holidays then take a look at our wonderful Alsace Discovery – A Wheels and Wanderings holiday. https://www.inntravel.co.uk/holidays/...
No visit to Alsace is complete without a stay in the handsome city of Colmar. We offer an optional two night add-on at the 4* Grand Hotel Bristol right in the heart of the city, just a short walk from the historic Old Town.
