Alsatian Trail

(Local Name: Alsace - Route du Vin) An attractive way of getting to know Alsace is to follow the Route du Vin, the Alsatian Trail, which runs west, parallel to N422, from Marlenheim (west of Strasbourg) via Obernai and Colmar to Thann (west of Mulhouse), passing through a series of picturesque Alsatian villages. The main trunk road which runs over the Rhine plain from Strasbourg to Colmar and Mulhouse is to be recommended only to travelers in a hurry.
