(S/E) With the station on your left, cross Route de Strasbourg (D392) and make a quick first turn left then right to enter Rue de Hermolsheim (the war memorial should be on your right). Continue straight ahead.
(1) At the second intersection, stop to admire the Notre-Dame de Lorette Chapel on your right and turn left onto Rue des Violettes. Cross the level crossing. Immediately after the railway line, take Chemin du Heilighiesel on your right. Go under the D1420 (or RN420) and climb the stairs to reach the Heilig Hiesel Chapel (which should be on your left).
(2) From the chapel, continue along the railway line, keeping straight ahead until you reach the first group of houses on your right. You will cross a field; remember to close the gate behind you. You will notice that you have walked along Rue de Hermolsheim, which comes in from the right: turn left, then immediately right and continue to follow the railway line until you reach the next group of houses (which will also be on your right). Continue straight ahead along Rue des Acacias, following the railway line until you reach the level crossing on the right.
(3) Cross the railway line and take the street on the left (Rue des Fleurs). At the end of Rue des Fleurs, turn left onto Rue des Rochers. Continue to the end and turn right onto Rue des Vosges, continuing to the intersection at Place de la Liberté.
At Place de la Liberté, turn left onto Rue du Général de Gaulle (D217). Continue to the intersection with Rue de Dinsheim. Take this street on the right and pass under the D1420 (or RN420). Continue straight ahead towards the village centre on the D717 and at the junction with Rue du Général de Gaulle, turn left for about 150 metres until you reach the chapel on your right.
(4) Just before the chapel, turn right onto Rue de la Chapelle.
(5) After the intersection with Rue du Schiebenberg, leave Rue de la Chapelle, which continues to the left, and take the dirt path that starts on the right.
Once on the dirt track, follow the signs to Notre-Dame du Schiebenberg. To do this, turn right at the first crossroads and then left at the second. After about 80 metres, turn right, keep right at the next crossroads and finally turn left to reach the statue of Notre-Dame du Schiebenberg.
(6) Just before the statue, follow the yellow ring markings to take the path down the hill until the path widens and turn left. Continue until you see a bench in front of you and turn right. At the end, turn left and follow the yellow ring to turn right and then left. After 750 metres, turn right to reach Rue du Camp.
(7) Turn right and follow this street for about 100 metres, then turn left onto the small path just before the first house in the village. At the end, turn right onto the street and continue straight ahead; further on, the street becomes Chemin des Juifs and leads to the D392 at the sign indicating the entrance to the commune of Dinsheim-sur-Bruche.
(8) Ignore the road and take a sharp left turn onto a tarmac path that starts to climb. Follow the yellow ring indicating Felsbourg - Sentier des Roches, but then keep right at each intersection (do not climb towards Felsbourg). At the end of the path, join Rue du Maréchal Leclerc.
(9) Turn left and continue to the crossroads, where you turn right onto Rue du Maréchal de Lattre de Tassigny. At the chapel, turn left and then right at the next intersection. At the fork about 50 metres further on, turn left onto Rue de la Source and continue for about 400 metres. Be careful not to miss the Hinterkirch path on the right, just after a small car park.
(10) Turn right onto this path and continue to Rue de la Trinité. Leave the path by taking this street on the left. Continue for a few metres until you see the yellow ring markings, then turn right and go down the path that leads to the back of Saint-Maurice Church, along the Way of the Cross (you will see reliefs carved on the church's surrounding wall).
(11) With the gate leading to the church behind you, continue along Rue de l'Église and turn left. After a few metres, you will pass the foyer and walk alongside the Town Hall car park. At the end of the car park (at the very back), take the alley on the right, Rue des Remparts, to reach the fortified gate (Porte du Bas).
(12) Go under the gate and turn left onto Avenue du Général de Gaulle. Cross two bridges over the Bruche river. After the second bridge, turn into the second street on the left, Rue Saint-Jacques. Don't be afraid to continue along the same street for about 900 metres to reach the Chapelle Saint-Jacques. The road will turn into a dirt track and you will only see the chapel after a sharp bend.
(13) With the chapel behind you, retrace your steps and take the second street on the left, Rue Haberland, which winds between the houses. Follow it to the end and, at the intersection with Rue des Champs, turn right to return to the station (S/E).
