Departure from La Bresse (Vosges)
This wonderful hike, the quintessence of the Hautes Vosges, will take you from the Route des Crêtes to the lovely Frankenthal valley and the beautiful Lac du Schiessrothried. Through (very) rocky paths, stubble fields, peat bogs and deep forest. Dotted with inns and climbing rocks. With a bit of luck, you might spot some chamois, or even grass snakes.

Easy
Departure from Raon-l'Étape (Vosges)
A circular route through the forest almost entirely on footpaths. Dotted with several sandstone outcrops, including the impressive cliffs of the Grande Basse and the Tête des Rondeaux. Pine, birch, spruce and beech trees abound. Plenty of blueberries in the summer months. A classic route for this part of the Vosges, but always just as enjoyable, especially on the footpaths.
