Eguisheim
The circular village 15 minutes from Colmar: concentric rings of half-timbered houses around a central square, two domaines with free tasting, and the Grands Crus vineyards starting at the village edge.
Riquewihr
The most visited village on the route, for good reason: the main street is a perfect corridor of half-timbered houses, wine shops, and wisteria. Hugel on the main street, the Dolder Tower, and vineyard paths outside the walls.
Kaysersberg
Albert Schweitzer's birthplace, the ruined castle above town with a valley view, the fortified bridge, and the best bakeries on the wine route. More substance and less tourism than Riquewihr.
Obernai & Northern Route
The largest town on the northern section of the route: a proper market square, a Renaissance town hall, ramparts walk, and the Sainte-Odile monastery 12 km above with a view that reaches the Black Forest.
