A lovely, easy hike with many paths wide enough for groups and a restaurant halfway along the route!

This route, marked by the Club Vosgien with a red ring, gives (too) much prominence to carriageways and sections of road, making it ideal for groups. Sometimes very stony, especially in the southern sector of Hohengoeft, it requires good footwear. It offers beautiful panoramic views and is a lovely walk to do in the off-season or when the temperature is not too high, as it is almost exclusively in the open.

This beautiful walk allows naturist campers and hikers to explore the area around the Mas de Lignières campsite. The walk is done fully clothed and takes you through the vineyards and pine forest north of Cesseras. For non-naturists, there is a car park, marked on the map but not on the road, at thefirst crossing point, which can be used as a starting and finishing point.

This beautiful hike offers stunning views of the Coupiat, Fendaille and Trémenal gorges. The route is fully signposted, presents no major difficulties and can be shortened at various points if necessary.

This beautiful, not overly long hike follows trails and offers, from the ascent to the ridge towards Rainkopf and then Rothenbachkopf, a panoramic view of the Vosges and, weather permitting, even the Bernese Alps.

Apart from the slightly steeper climb from the Gloriette du Geissfelwasen to the Rocher du Geissfels, this short hike is not difficult and is very pleasant, despite the last kilometre before the finish being on the road. The view from the Geissfels is 360° and well worth the detour.

This easy hike starts from La Ville, a hamlet or district of Gresse-en-Vercors, on the edge of the ski resort, and offers beautiful views of the cliff chain to the west of Gresse-en-Vercors, as well as Mont Aiguille when you reach the Col de l'Allimas. Having done this walk in June, the flora was lush and it was a real treat.

This beautiful hike, marked in green and yellow from La Ville, a district or hamlet of Gresse-en-Vercors, offers beautiful views of the village and its plateau, as well as the Grand Veymont and Mont de l'Aiguille. However, it should be avoided in winter as it is impassable.

This walk, the route of which (fully signposted with red and yellow markers) is largely shaded, is particularly pleasant in hot weather. It is strongly advised against undertaking this walk in winter, as the first section runs alongside the Brisou stream on hillsides that are very steep in places. Furthermore, some streams, which are dry in summer, may not be crossable in winter. This is not a family walk suitable for young children!

This circular starting from Oberhof is not particularly difficult and allows you to discover some unusual places, including the cave dwellings of Grauthal and the Schiertorfelsen.

This beautiful walk offers, at both the Croix Stata and the Croix Cartier, a superb panoramic view of the Aravis range to the west and the Mont Blanc range to the east. The route passes through an area where there is a risk of avalanches. (It is essential to check the stability of the snowpack and the risk of avalanches before setting off.)

This route through the Walscheid State Forest takes you past two wayside shrines erected following accidental deaths, as well as a very well-preserved Gallo-Roman cemetery, a superb view of the Saint-Léon Chapel in Dabo and a fine climbing rock. The return journey along the Zorn makes for a very picturesque walk.

This pleasant 9 km walk takes you to rocks and caves off the beaten track of the Club Vosgien's marked trails. It is not particularly difficult. However, it largely follows unmarked paths, so walkers should follow the description below carefully, take a map with them or, better still, use the Visorando app.

Here is a lovely alternative for exploring the Croix de Colomban on snowshoes, starting from the Col de la Croix Fry, which is very often crowded at weekends. Although not very long, the elevation gain is quite significant and the slope is sometimes quite steep. Certain sections, particularly the crossing of the Nant Bruyant, can be tricky depending on snow conditions or the flow of the stream.

This fairly challenging but well-shaded walk offers magnificent views of the Gulf of Porto-Vecchio and the Sotta Valley. The sheepfolds at Bitalza are well worth a visit.

This moderately difficult circular hike takes you to five castles built in the 12th and 13th centuries, each with a different history. From the top of some of the castles, you can also enjoy magnificent views of the Northern Vosges and the German Palatinate.

This circular, which presents no technical difficulties, will take you through pretty spots dotted with beautiful rocks, notably the Grotte d'Amour. Of reasonable length, it is a pleasant walk to be done in half a day.

This hike across varied terrain takes you around three mountain ranges via the Schleif and Wetzlach passes and offers some lovely views. It also allows you to discover beautiful rock formations and other unusual spots.

This lovely, shaded walk offers beautiful views of the forest and the Rocher de Dabo with its Saint-Léon Chapel. It passes by the Château du Ochsentein, as well as several points of interest such as the Ottenad-Keller Fountain, a pagan wall, the Druids’ Stone and the Jean-Louis Haemmerlin Fountain.
