OT Sundgau

Gravel circuit 56 km around the capital of Sundgau

This Gravel circuit in Alsace, leaving from Altkirch station, joins the canal via Aspach and an agricultural path. Arriving at the canal, two possibilities:

  • Either turn left and follow the route indicated to reach Saint Bernard then Spechbach and Illfurth across fields
  • Either turn right along the canal to go directly to Illfurth and thus shorten the route by 10 km.

In Illfurth, you will climb through the forest on a beautiful forest path to Luemschwiller, a small town preserved in its green setting.

From there, the circuit resumes the cycle route to Schwoben where, once again, it goes up towards the forest to then take the Roman road (or, if desired, a small forest path which runs along this same road).

The rest of the route takes a majority of white paths to Hirsingue to finish on the Ill cycle route, to reach Altkirch station.
