This region has hundreds of small fishponds, once created by monks in the Middle Ages. Today they form a patchwork of water, reeds and forest – a paradise for birds, cyclists and those seeking peace and quiet. You cycle along quiet banks, see herons take flight and enjoy local specialities such as fried carp along the way.

In and around Hindlingen you have a good chance of spotting storks anyway, especially in spring and summer, but here you are certain. These elegant birds nest on roofs and poles, and forage in the wet meadows around the village. A nice moment to stop and enjoy this living symbol of Alsace.

Ideal to stretch your legs, have a bite to eat or go exploring with children. Free admission and open on Sunday afternoons in the summer months.

St. Anne's Church in Hindlingen dates from the 20th century, but is not devoid of interest. The picturesque village alone is worth the detour.

This enclosure aims to ensure the presence of this majestic bird in Alsace. The animals are fed, kept and cared for. This site is worth the detour!

The Sundgau is full of artificial ponds. In general, they are quite small and were dug in the 12th century by Cistercian monks. The goal ? Found a fish-farming tradition so as not to consume meat during Lent.
