A long hike that will take you from the Col du Donon to Saint-Blaise-la-Roche in the Schirmeck valley, via the Col du Prayé and the Col du Hantz. You’ll follow the old 1871 border between France and Germany along the ridges, which is still marked by several boundary stones. In August, the high moors are dotted with flowering heather, creating a beautiful pink hue that contrasts with the green of the fir trees, the blue of the sky and the white clouds.
