Trek across the hills and through valleys, along splashing streams past picturesque villages, something the Alsace is known for. Along the way you may even encounter the ruins of a magical castle, something else the Alsace is not lacking in. Of course the witch museum in Bergheim is also magical, in its own way. Or perhaps you would prefer a bit of bird watching, easily possible from one of our holiday homes in Alsace. And after an active day outdoors there is nothing better than to unwind by the pool or with a game of tennis.
