The TDS Vélo - Sundgau Bike Tour
The TDS Vélo (Tour du Sundgau) is a new cycling route, to be completed over one, two or three days, which, as its name suggests, goes around the Sundgau, in the south of Alsace. It uses the region's cycle paths, small, quiet and winding roads and existing cycle routes, to offer a beautiful and large loop of 129 km, with a difference in altitude of just under 1000m. You will discover the valleys of the Ill and the Largue, rich in numerous beautiful half-timbered houses, and will explore the magnificent Alsatian Jura massif which will allow you to gain height and enjoy numerous panoramas.
A sticker specific to this loop has been placed on the existing markers in order to calmly follow the 129 km of the route, the GPS tracks are also available for download.
