This bike path is very, very nice, and there's even a bench. The bike path is also under trees.

The Thur on your left, the vineyard on your right. Magnificent (golden) colours of the vineyard from the end of September.

Shaded and cool route in summer. Remain vigilant while riding; the trail is damaged by roots in some places.

Burnhaupt station is now the operational centre of the Dollertalbahn in Upper Alsace, which is operated as a museum line by the TTDA (Train-Thur-Doller-Alsace) association. It dates back to the 1920s, after the original station was destroyed in a French offensive in the First World War. 2013-12-08 Burnhaupt
