Above Lautenbachzell, this day hike will take you through several different landscapes of the Vosges: orchards and villages in the valley, pine forests, beech woods and stumps. You will reach the Grand Ballon, the highest peak in the Vosges, after walking along the Lac du Grand Ballon and passing near waterfalls.

An easy hike that can be enjoyed in all seasons, with a little extra charm in winter.

This circuit will take you to the highest peak in the Vosges, offering views of the Alps in good weather.
