Had to use this huge map to give you a better idea of the area I 'm talking about.From Wissenbourg in the North to Mulhhouse the countryside is blessed with exceptional wine growing areas and touristic, quaint old villages. If you go, Strasbourg, Colmar are a must.And in between a dozen of gems I wouldn't want to miss out on if it were my first visit. Currently, we are staying in the Haguenau area with our home swap.It's not exactly bang in the middle of this beautiful region but w have more forests and nature sights here up north/west. The area is called Les Vosges.
Pure chi-chi sightseeing you can do in towns like Obernai,
Kaysersberg where the house where Albert Schweitzer was born can be visited.
,Ribeauville,
Munster where the famous and very aromatic cheese hails from.
Where to start?
Each town basically has its own wine specialties, wine fests and degustations...You can spend your day slightly inebriated just from all the tastings. At this time of year, in addition, they show their splendor in millions of flowers in window boxes and parks and gardens.
