In viaggio con Sergio

From Riquewihr to Hunawihr (and way back)

For almost three decades, Alsace has been probably one of my favorite destination for my journeys, and also on summer 2024 I went there with my friend Edwin and his wonderful son Ary.
Ary seemed so happy to be in Alsace together with his “uncle”, as much as I was so happy to be there with my “nephew”, and believe me it’s so wonderful to have such a “nephew” that seems to have a real passion for traveling and art, and a real love for the culture of a country that is not our fatherland: happiness at its purest state!
We already studied our trip on this small part of the Route du vin right here at home, with old maps opened on my house floor and with ours mobile phones, always connected to the app IGN, the french government wonderful geographic guide, so good to explore French territory.
So let’s start our walk between Riquewihr and Hunawihr and then let’s walk back to our starting point, walking through the wineyards

The Dolder, the tower that is also the symbol of this town
Let’s visit the museum inside the tower and let’s have a wonderful view of the town
After viewing the Dolder and over taking the historic walls, we reached Hunawihr walking through the vineyards
The fortified church of Hunawihr stands out for its setting among the vineyards
We decide to return to Riquewihr through the vineyards…
… and by crossing the terroir known as Schoenenburg, which produces some of the finest Alsatian white wines, we conclude our journey by returning to Riquewihr.
And Alsace seems to be a triumph of colors

 I already told you in a previous post how to reach Alsace by car or public transport starting from northern Italy. Now, I warmly invite you to come and visit this splendid land, nestled between Germany and Switzerland and bathed by the Rhine: in our opinion, it’s truly worth the trip
