Description of the walk

Park in the car park at the junction of Rue du Cimetière and Rue du Ballon, opposite the cemetery.

(S/E) With your back to the car park, start off to the left (north-west) on Rue du Ballon. Walk past the church and turn right onto Rue de la Paix (follow the Anneau Vert signs to Wattwiller). Continue until you reach the crossroads with a triangle marking on the ground.

(1) Turn left onto Rue des Vignes and leave the village. Continue up the gentle slope alongside the vineyards, then at the end of the path, start the steep climb to the right at the edge of the forest.

(2) As soon as you leave the woods, take the path on the right for a short descent, then the first path on the left. At the end, turn left and join Rue des Châtaigniers and Château Baudry.

(3) Continue straight ahead, leaving the château on your left, then turn left at the crossroads (crucifix and bench on the right). This is the end of the Anneau Vert trail. Continue to the bridge over the Siehlbaechle stream.

(4) Turn right onto the Stadt Weg path which runs alongside the stream just before the bridge. Turn left at the wooden anti-bike chicane and join Rue du Moulin, going around the house on the left.

(5) Turn left, then right to arrive in front of the Church of St. John the Baptist. Continue around the building and walk to the fountain. Turn right onto Rue de la Victoire, then left to continue along this road. Continue straight on Rue d'Uffholtz, cross the bridge over the Siehlbaechle stream and arrive at a right-hand bend.

(6) At this bend, leave the road and take a path on the left into a small wood. At the end of the path, turn right, then right again and finally left onto Chemin de l'Ellbach. At the next three-way junctions, turn left (follow the Anneau Vert signs to Uffholtz), then right and finally left until you return to the vineyards and a T-junction.

(7) Turn left. Pass two paths on your right and, after a steep descent, take thethird path on your right. Continue downhill until you reach the junction with a triangular mark on the ground at the start of the circular.

(1) Turn left onto Rue des Près, then right at the end onto Rue de Wattwiller. Continue straight ahead until you reach the car park (S/E).
