This varied and fairly easy hike starts in front of Senones Abbey and climbs to the Quatre-Bancs crossroads and then the Col du Dialtrepoix in a fairly wild environment. On the way back, you descend gently along a forest road that offers wide views of the valley at times.

A walk offering a close-up view of the wind turbines at Bois de Belfays. In this longer version, you reach the wind farm via Pré Leroy (La Grande Fosse) and return via Pré Lannequin (Châtas).

This hike starts on a forest trail in a wild environment and then continues in open country on the Hautes Chaumes. Next, head south towards the Abri de la Haute Loge shelter, then north to walk along the ridge. Return via the Basse des Loges and the Chemin des Italiens.

This is a hike with two different atmospheres: first a little mysterious and timeless with the Adrienne Fountain and the Malfosse Chapel, then historical and educational with the Roche Mère Henry memorial trail and its belvedere offering a breathtaking view of Senones and the Rabodeau valley.

The route winds through the shade of the Côte de Répy massif. Pass by the Pierre d'Appel promontory to enjoy a sweeping view of Étival-Clairefontaine, then head towards the Tête de Répy with its observatory overlooking Raon l'Étape. The route is dotted with numerous rocks, often with a bench where you can sit and enjoy the varied panoramic views.

The walk takes you through the Fontenelle site and its surroundings, which were the scene of fighting during the First World War.

A fairly challenging walk on the hills above Moyenmoutier to explore the ruins of the Château de la Haute Pierre and its 360° panorama. Then technical sections through the Roches de la Balance and de Lanceux before reaching the Croix de Malfosse crossroads for a gentle descent back to the abbey grounds.

From Moussey (Vosges), a circular hike that passes through the Rouges Terres to climb the Hautes Chaumes and then the Haute Loge: 360° view. Return to the starting point via the Sentier des Passeurs. This section of the historic trail is the Vosges part, with the French part starting at the Maison Forestière de Salm in Alsace. From 1940 onwards, this trail was used by smugglers to guide escapees, those refusing to participate in the STO (compulsory labour service) and all kinds of people who wanted to flee Nazi barbarism to free France. Most of the elevation gain is concentrated in the first part of the hike, up to Haute Loge.

This route invites you to discover the Montée des Schlitteurs, as it is offered to sports enthusiasts every Christmas Eve. It will take you to Roche du Sapin Sec, then to other beautiful rocks with magnificent views, before beginning the descent to Saint-Dié-des-Vosges, its cathedral and the banks of the Meurthe.

A short circular loop that runs alongside Lake Pierre-Percée before climbing up to the village of the same name and circling the nearby castle. Also known as Château de Salm, it has been open to visitors since May 2026 following a spectacular renovation. This offers walkers and other nature lovers the chance to finally rediscover this iconic site perched above the lake.
