A very large selection of cakes. A true French patisserie. The staff speaks excellent German. Sandwiches are also available for purchase. Seating is available inside and outside for dining! Highly recommended!

The climb from Rosteig up towards Volksberg is one of the more difficult climbs in the Northern Vosges. However, it's also one of the most beautiful.

This lock is precision work. Shortly afterward, it's best to cross to the opposite side of the canal to safely backtrack a bit and view the boat lift from below. This way, you can avoid the road.

The road is quiet, and the climb is rather gentle. Relaxed.

A very beautiful cycle path along an impressive monument to the history of technology. To overcome the difference in elevation, 17 locks were built into the canal. Each of these 17 locks had its own lockkeeper. The charming lockkeeper's houses that line the canal give an idea of the comfortable, prosperous lives the lockkeepers led.
