Tips from the Community
The chapel Notre-Dame du Grunenwald probably dates back to the 15th century and has been an important place of pilgrimage for centuries. According to legend, children found a statue of Mary in the forest, whereupon a first chapel was built at this spot. In the 16th century, it was expanded by the Order of Saint John/Knights of Malta and later rebuilt, including in 1705. During the First World War, the chapel was severely destroyed by artillery fire. The current chapel was built between 1930 and 1933. The historical statue of Mary and some stones from the previous building have been preserved to this day.

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.

Right next to the Largue cycle path lies this cosy nature centre in Altenach. You will find a short educational walk, a playground, picnic benches and a small exhibition about the nature 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.
