Among the many trails available, just a few kilometres from Wissembourg, the Chemin des Cimes Alsace takes you to the heart of the Northern Vosges forest for a unique walk in the heights.
This wooden trail, accessible to all, winds its way for over a kilometre through the trees and leads to a 29-metre-high panoramic tower, offering breathtaking views of the Rhine plain, the Black Forest and, on a clear day, as far as Strasbourg. Fun and educational, the trail also features a giant slide for an unforgettable descent.
Treat yourself to an exceptional experience above northern Alsace with Alsace Verte Montgolfières. Take off from Soultz-sous-Forêts or Schoenenbourg aboard a hot air balloon that can carry up to three people plus the pilot, and let the wind carry you away.
Suspend time above the forests of the Northern Vosges Natural Park, picturesque villages, the Maginot Line or the Cleebourg vineyards, with a 360° view. It’s a moment of wonder and freedom that naturally invites itself into your stay.
In the heart of the northernmost vineyard on the Alsace Wine Route, the Cave de Cleebourg has been bringing together passionate winegrowers since 1946, who cultivate 200 hectares of hillsides within the Northern Vosges Natural Park.
Here you can discover a wide range of Alsace wines and crémants, made from iconic grape varieties and produced with respect for the environment. The cellar welcomes visitors for friendly tastings and regularly offers guided tours to immerse yourself in the world of this unique terroir.
A few kilometres from Wissembourg, immerse yourself in history at Fort Schoenenbourg, one of the major structures of the Maginot Line in Alsace. Digging 30 metres underground, you can explore nearly 3 kilometres of galleries, where you’ll find underground kitchens, barracks, an infirmary, a power plant, turrets and combat blocks, all striking reminders of military life in days gone by.
Built to accommodate up to 630 soldiers, the site, now listed as a Historic Monument, offers a striking immersion into this defensive construction. The visit takes place in the constant coolness of the underground, on a marked circuit lasting around two hours.
Horse riding in the surrounding countryside, swimming at the municipal pool in summer, strolling among the colourful stalls of the Saturday morning market… in Wissembourg, there are plenty of opportunities to relax and soak up the local way of life.
The town also offers a varied cultural programme throughout the year, with concerts, exhibitions and family activities. To make the most of your stay and not miss any upcoming events, feel free to check the town hall website.
