THE ST BRICE – BETTLACH TRAIL
The longest route offered in Bettlach, it connects the village casemates, relics of a nearly forgotten era, to the Saint-Brice chapel of Oltingue, a place for rest, refreshment, and perhaps meditation for some. In short, a nice walk with many
From Linsdorf, you will join the Bettlach casemates trail then travel through the Eichwald forest. The route offers at several points magnificent panoramas of the Alsatian Jura.

The so-called “casemates” trail links three impressive Maginot Line fortresses, built between 1937 and 1940. It is marked by excellent explanatory panels that tell the history of this Maginot Line, the colossal efforts it required, and its fleeting role at the start of World War II. A beautiful viewpoint on the Jura massif spices up this small loop.
