Giro veloce in bici da Colmar a Riquewihr

Set off from the heart of Colmar, famous for its stunning half-timbered old town and storybook canals. This 15.5-kilometer ride to Riquewihr gives you a real taste of Alsace, winding through lush vineyards and rolling hills. Most of your journey is on quiet roads (about 72%), so you can really soak up the scenery—with just a few stretches on tracks and cycleways.

The route is almost entirely paved and smooth, perfect for a relaxed pace. There’s a gentle climb (about 184 meters of ascent), but nothing too taxing—just enough to work up an appetite for local wine and tarte flambée when you arrive. Riquewihr feels straight out of a fairy tale, with colorful houses, cobbled streets, and flower boxes everywhere. It’s officially one of “Les Plus Beaux Villages de France,” so don’t forget your camera!

All in all, this is a breezy ride through Alsace’s most beautiful landscapes, connecting two postcard-perfect towns. Great for a leisurely half-day outing, especially if you love history, wine, and relaxed countryside cycling.
