Is 3 weeks enough for a good trip through the french countryside?

"Enough" for what exactly?
What do you want to do or see?

>>2802987
I'm interested in seeing castles, cute villages, nice food and country scenery. Working on my french some.

I'm considering one of these routes, looking at the southern one's in particular

>>2802982 (OP)
For just the countryside yes. Paris could be 2-3 weeks by itself.

If you do that green route down south, you'll need a car. There's no convenient bus or train route to get between a lot of those spots. Without a car, you'd miss the good stuff like the Pont du Gard.

Was planning on getting a car. The road trip element seems more fun to my american brain

Three weeks is plenty.
If you go by car make sure to take the secondary roads, much more scenic and no toll.

These look more like routes to go city-hopping.
If you want to see the countryside, especially if you imagine something like your OP picture (is that Colmar?), I would take a different approach. Start with some places you want to see and then ask ChatGPT to make a roadmap.

That's not Colmar. Probably Guebwiller or gundolsheim some other provincial shit.

More like 2-3 days, the place is a dump.

Honestly this. Paris is ogre.When you land, you'll be wondering whether your flight got hijacked and redirected to Algeria.
Most of the rest of France is beautiful, though.
