La Bresse walks

From La Bresse (centre), this is an easy 6-hour hike around the beautiful Hautes-Vosges valley.

A pretty little walk with a beautiful viewpoint over Lac des Corbeaux, where you may like to take a dip.

Lac des Corbeaux is a beautiful little mountain lake that attracts many visitors, especially in summer. It is very easy to walk around with the family in an idyllic setting. At the start, the Haut des Bluches campsite also offers superb tree house rentals. A giant zip line also passes right over our heads. In short, it's not to be missed.

Randonnée en raquettes (ou à pied en été) en partant du camping du haut des Bluches ; montée vers le Lac des Corbeaux et retour par l'Étang de Sèchemer.

Both accessible and mountainous, this hike in the heart of the Croix Claudé ski area takes you along pleasant trails and offers two beautiful, remarkable views of the Vosges Mountains.

Start and finish at the Col de Bramont. This route will let you discover the Lac des Corbeaux from the Belvédère de la Roche du Lac 200m above it. The view is stunning and its the perfect place for a snack! A trail takes you down to the lake. It doesn't cross the embankment, but takes you round the lake on a pleasant, shady trail. Return to the Col de Bramont via the Étang de Sèchemer. A very beautiful circuit that's not too difficult, although very steep.

A very beautiful, shaded hike through a magnificent forest of hundred-year-old beech trees, with views of the Chaume des Vintergés and the Chaume du Grand Ventron viewpoint, overlooking the ridges (Markstein, Grand Ballon and Alsace).

Where the ridge splits in two, one towards the Grand Ballon and the other towards the Grand Ventron, the Rainkopf offers an exceptional 360° panorama. There are many points of interest along the route, including Lac de Blanchemer and its floating peat bog, Lac de La Lande and its dam, Chaume du Firsmiss, the beautiful Machais peat bog, the glacial cirques and their scree slopes, and views of the Vosges and Alsace peaks and the Fecht and Thur valleys.

A peat bog, a lake and two peaks on the ridges with views of the main Vosges mountains. On clear days, especially in winter, you can see the Black Forest and the Alps.

A circuit through the forest to reach a fine viewpoint above the Abri des Champis overlooking the Vologne valley (Moselotte valley) and the Bresse and Hohneck massifs. It's a very pleasant way to start off, along Lac de Lispach, to admire this ancient glacial valley. The trails are perfectly signposted for walking, mountain biking and snowshoeing in winter. In summer, the ridge is a flower-filled meadow.

In the Vosges forest, discover three lakes with very different environments, peat bogs and forest passages that can be quite technical at times.

At the start of Lake Lispach, this hike will take you through a variety of settings. Peat bogs bordering Lake Lispach where you will see the Vosges’ forests and even some of the Rouge Feigne’s stubble more than 1,100 m above sea level. The return on the mountainside will eventually convince you that the Vosges are not just for cows...

Walk along the Vosges ridges down to Lac de la Lande. This walk follows the Hautes Vosges stubble trails among Vosges cows, passing not far from the farmhouse inns of Breitzousen, Fershmuss and Schmargult. Further down, through the shady beech and spruce woods, you reach Lac de la Lande, an ideal spot for a picnic. The very reasonable elevation gain of 250 m over 9.5 km means that this hike is not particularly difficult. 06/02/2023: Hiking is prohibited until further notice by municipal decree due to rock and stone falls on theGR®531.

This varied and challenging loop, winding its way through the stubble fields and forests of the Vosges, offers beautiful views of the lakes and Alsace on one side and Lorraine on the other. You may even be lucky enough to spot some chamois. Some difficult sections are reminiscent of the Sentier des Roches. 06/02/2023: Hiking prohibited until further notice by municipal decree due to rock and stone falls on theGR®®531.

A beautiful descent! But then a beautiful climb back up!!! Magnificent scenery and lots of flowers to admire in early July... and enjoy tasting local produce at the Steinwasen farm inn...

This hike allows you to discover one of the most beautiful regions of the Vosges, in particular the two lakes of Schiessrothried and Fischboedle. It is classified as moderate, but it can be difficult due to some rocky and steep paths and a significant elevation gain.

The Hohneck with all the beauty of the Vosges mountains: the great rocky escarpments, the cirques, the seeping springs, the traces of the Ice Age, the flora and fauna and the famous farmhouse inns. 06/02/2023: Hiking prohibited until further notice by municipal decree due to rock and stone falls on theGR®®531.

A magnificent, fairly easy hike on high moorland with sweeping views. From the summit of Kastelberg, you can see the main peaks of the Vosges and, on a clear day, the Alps.
