Munster Valley Tourist Office
In 1968, Roger GRUNINGER, director of the tourist office, precursor of the current intercommunal tourist office, created THE CHEESE ROUTE, which connects the 28 farm inns in the Munster Valley. This road promotes the tourist development of high-altitude farms and the entire territory. Over time, it falls into disuse, although it is still present in the collective memory.
Following the opening of the Maison du Fromage in 2011, the community of communes and the tourist office inaugurated the new Cheese Route - Munster Valley on April 28, 2012 at the Maison du Fromage.
61 agro-tourism players, farm inns, inns and cheese dairies, are enthusiastically committed to animating this tourist route. They are identified by a sign. If the production of Munster cheese in the valley is mainly based on cow's milk, 4 goat farms are also associated with the project.
The 100 km of asphalt road are usually traveled by car or coach; the new Cheese Route favors accessibility by soft travel, with public transport, such as trains or TER buses. It can be done on foot using the 365 km of hiking trails marked by the Vosges club, with donkeys, by mountain bike, by bike, with snowshoes or cross-country skiing. Mountain guides offer day trips and packaged products.
The “km 0” of the Cheese Route is the Maison du Fromage in Gunsbach.
