France is very well known for amazing treks among adventurers. I’ve been riding through France for decades. I have tried all the possible routes with best of my knowledge explored. I would like to share some selected routes you can use for trekking or taking the ride.
1. Alsace
ROUTE DES VINS
If you are taking Alsace as your trek, you have no choice but to ride on winding roads through vineyards and historic towns. You have to start by heading south from Ottrott to Illhaeusern, there are countless colorful villages and beautiful roads. The route is between France and Germany. You can also explore churches, the variety of cultures, and amazing food.
The distance is around 51 km. It truly needs efforts to ride the trek, if you have any medical problem then avoid going. For normal travelers also it is suggested to take at least 1-2 months of gym training before going on this kind of treks. The preferred time is May to September to plan trekking adventure.
