Eguisheim Village Center

Highlight • Settlement

Eguisheim is one of the most picturesque villages in Alsace and was voted the most beautiful village in France in 2013. Built in concentric circles around the ruins of a medieval castle, the village is known for its colourful half-timbered houses, flower-filled facades and charming squares. The central Place du Château Saint-Léon is the heart of the village, with a fountain, a chapel and pleasant terraces. Eguisheim is located on the Route des Vins d’Alsace and is surrounded by vineyards, making it a popular stop for cyclists who want to combine culture, heritage and wine in an atmospheric setting.

Firstplan Pass

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

The Col du Firstplan is a quiet, narrow and densely wooded pass. Its tour debut was in 1969. From the D18/D40 junction to the west of Soultzmatt, head towards Osenbach. At a junction, stay left on the D40. At the end of the pass, the road curves to the right. There you have reached the highest point ⛰️

Col du Firstplan

Highlight (Segment) • Other

Reopened at the end of March 2024 after a long closure. Relatively even gradient on both sides and very little traffic (on a Saturday morning there were only 3 cars during my trip). At the top of the pass there are several tables/benches for a short break.

Eguisheim Village

Highlight • Settlement

Eguisheim is classified among the most beautiful villages in France. This medieval city was built around its castle, which unfolds in concentric circles. Its cobbled streets and old houses with colorful facades are truly stunning!
