(01) Weil am Rhein - St.Hippolyte

From the train station in Weil am Rhein, cross the Passerelle des Trois Pays (bridge for pedestrians and cyclists) to St. Louis, then follow the main road until the turn towards Hegenheim. At the end of Hegenheim, take a turn and cross a hill on a partially gravel path. From Hagenthal, take little-trafficked country roads to Delle and continue uphill to Croix, through the gorge near Glan and steeply up to Chamesol. From here, enjoy a pleasant descent to the camping area in St.Hippolyte (restaurant/pizzeria in the village, as of June 2017, no grocery store!). First of twenty stages of a cycling tour around Switzerland. A relaxed start without significant challenges in a charming but unspectacular landscape.
