A lovely, undulating walk, mostly through woodland and brightened by the abundance of broom. Several points of interest mark this circular route: the botanical and ‘Poets’ trails showcase the forest, the high-perched Château de Lichtenberg offers a striking silhouette, whilst at the other end of the route the large sandstone boulders of the Scheibenberg remind us of the geology of the Northern Vosges.
The GPX track will certainly be very useful.

On this second stage of your journey through the Vosges with Passion Vosges, you’ll pass numerous castle ruins – it’s a whole different experience. It’s an opportunity to discover the technical and architectural feats achieved at the time in such a hostile environment. This is particularly true of the semi-troglodytic castles of the Northern Vosges, where you find yourself wondering every time how parts of the structure managed to cling to the rock faces. A dizzying question. This stage is described by Franck Buchy in *Passion Vosges*, the hiking magazine published by *DNA* and *L’Alsace*. The entire route follows the Red Rectangle, unless otherwise stated.
