            Pleasantly shady in summer.

              Brilliant cycle path that leads along the entire Rhine-Rhone canal, with many scenic highlights.
              A little further south you cross the Ill relief canal with other beautiful paths and routes. To the east begins the Plobsheim Basin (Plan d'eau de Plobsheim), a Rhine reservoir that attracts many nature and bird lovers as a nature reserve, or attracts sailors and surfers in its northern area.
              Also to the east is "La Sommerly" in the Erstein Forest (Réserve naturelle national de la forêt d'Erstein), a beautiful and impressive nature reserve in a veritable jungle.

                Here at the crossing of the Ill relief canal, with other beautiful paths and routes nearby. To the east begins the Plobsheim Basin (Plan d’eau de Plobsheim), a Rhine balancing basin that attracts many nature and bird lovers as a nature reserve, or sailors and surfers in its northern area.
                Also to the east is "La Sommerly" in the Erstein Forest (Réserve naturelle nationale de la forêt d'Erstein), a beautiful and impressive nature reserve in a veritable primeval forest.

                  The Rhône–Rhine Canal (French: Canal du Rhône au Rhin) is one of the important watershed canals of the French waterways, connecting the Rhine to the Saône and the Rhône and thereby the North Sea and the Mediterranean. As built, the canal was made up of four distinct sections:

                  the branche Sud or southern branch, 224 km (139 mi) from the Saône just north of Saint-Jean-de-Losne to the Île Napoléon basin and junction just east of Mulhouse;
                  the branche Nord or northern branch, 134 km (83 mi) from the Mulhouse junction to the Dusuzeau basin at the port of Strasbourg;
                  the 22 km (14 mi) long Canal de Huningue, from the junction to the Rhine at Huningue, just north of the Swiss port of Basle;
                  and the 10 km (6.2 mi) long Belfort branch, which when built was to be the first section of the Canal de Montbéliard à la Haute-Saône.

                      It really doesn't require a high level of cycling for a truly calm, pleasant and secure ride. Only happiness if the weather is good.

                          If you like cycling along the water and want to enjoy beautiful landscapes with little difficulty on the plain, this tour is exactly the right one.

                            Nice bike path, but unfortunately with a few rest areas or refreshment stops.
                            Otherwise a simple leisurely tour in the middle of a beautiful landscape.

                                  Little old ferry houses everywhere. Wide avenues, wide stretches to drive. Humility and joy alternate - unless you have headwinds!
