Sundgau, Alsatian gastronomy and activities — your travel guide from Waldighoffen
The Sundgau
Nicknamed "the little Tuscany of Alsace", the Sundgau is a region of rolling green hills, flower-filled villages and shimmering ponds. Just a stone's throw from the house, Ferrette — a perched medieval town — offers breathtaking views over the valley. Discover villages like Oltingue, Leymen or Fislis, each with its church, wash house and flower-lined lanes.
