Description of the walk

In Fellerig, coming from Thann by car, after the church, turn left towards Rammersbach, following the yellow disc of the Club Vosgien. In Rammersbach, park your car at the end of the tarmac road.

Follow the yellow disc towards Lochberg until you reach a crossroads with the names of the different paths (1). Turn left onto the "Chemin Gustiberg" (written on a wooden sign but not marked by the Club Vosgien) and follow it until you reach a path coming from Fellering (blue triangle).

(2) Turn right and follow this signposting to the ridge ("altitude 1135m" sign). Follow the ridge north-west towards Drumont (blue rectangle).

(3) You are now on theGR®531. Follow the blue rectangle markings, which will take you to Hasenkopf, Tête de Fellering (5) and Faigne des Minons.

(6) During the descent, turn right onto the "chemin des Alliés" (yellow triangle) towards Langenbach.

(7) At the Langenbach forest shelter, turn right onto the "chemin Robert Curien". Join the "chemin du Batschina" (1), which you took at the start (yellow disc) and which will take you back to Rammersbach.

A very beautiful climb with superb views. A beautiful panorama at the summit and a lovely descent.
However, the return journey from the Oderen Pass to Rammersbach seemed endless to me. I have to take a group there, so I think I'll take a more direct route down.

A very beautiful hike done in the opposite direction to the one suggested, as we wanted to stop at the Gustiberg inn. A very good inn that is not on the route but only requires a 700 m detour!
Magnificent view of the valley, paragliders taking off, no major difficulties.

A beautiful hike with magnificent scenery and panoramic views. A lovely picnic spot with a view of Drumont before reaching the summit of Fellering. We encountered mountain bikers who had to dismount due to a 25% incline on the climb before the GR531. The panoramic table at Drumont was overrun by sheep, which left many traces on the ground.
This hike should only be attempted in good weather with good visibility.
The route on Visorando does not go through the MINONS pass. You have to make a small detour via the yellow triangle and then rejoin the GR531 via a small path that starts from the pass.

A very easy hike to follow, provided you plan your trip in advance, of course.
The climb is very pleasant, with interesting views at various points along the way.
My only criticism would be the descent between Tête de Fellering and Chemin des Alliés, which is really steep and hard on the knees.
You need to be careful on this part of the route.

We couldn't do the hike because the snow was icy on the north slope. We were able to take another path that was sunnier. Very beautiful view from the top!

This hike is a great excuse to have lunch at the Drumont farmhouse inn. The only difficult part is setting off again and covering the first 100 metres, after which you can just coast down into the valley 😁

Splendid view upon arriving at the farmhouse inn.
From the farmhouse inn, we took the parallel yellow triangle path
to Faigne des Minons due to knee problems.
Less steep descent. Beautiful hike.

I wanted to do the hike in the opposite direction to enjoy the Drumont farmhouse inn...

In the description, it would have been helpful to include the logos of the marked trails for each section of the route, which can also be found on IGN maps (instead of a trail name with a sign only at the start of the trail... And in this area, there are many new trails, often created by foresters, and at each junction, you find yourself wondering which way to go...)

But a very beautiful hike...

well, it's difficult to make a loop in this area, and the one suggested is interesting even if the elevation gain is quite significant and "rapid"
diverse landscapes, sublime and panoramic views from the summit of Drumont

Nice hike, we started from the Langenbach woodpile.
Good map, but there was a problem with the signposting when we got to La Faigne des Minons.
