Vous quittez Colmar pour rejoindre les bords ombragés de la Thur. Puis, continuez de pédaler dans la campagne alsacienne jusqu’à Eguisheim, classé parmi les Plus Beaux Villages de France et récompensé de nombreuses fois pour la qualité de son fleurissement. Admirez ses belles demeures du XVIème siècle aux couleurs vives et flânez dans ses ruelles pavées. Poursuivez à travers vignes jusqu’au joli village de Turckheim où un veilleur de nuit continue chaque soir de faire ses rondes de mai à octobre. Vous pouvez faire une pause à Ammerschwihr pour déguster un verre de Kaefferkopf, dernier vin blanc à avoir rejoint les grands crus d’Alsace, avant de rentrer à Colmar.
