Hotels in Alsace Wine Route, France

The Alsace Wine Route stretches across eastern France, hugging the German border, and enjoys warm summers (around 77°F or 25°C) perfect for cycling through vineyards that produce Riesling and Gewürztraminer, and cold winters (around 32°F or 0°C) when you can explore medieval villages like Colmar and Riquewihr during their Christmas markets. You'll taste wines at family-run estates such as Domaine Weinbach, and in fall, you can join the harvest celebrations at the Fête des Vignerons in Barr. For a change of pace, hike the Vosges mountains in spring to see wildflowers, or visit the Unterlinden Museum in Colmar to see the Isenheim Altarpiece on a rainy afternoon.
