Kaysersberg is a village well known for its architecture and historic centre. It is also possible to combine a visit to this village with a route that takes in Aspach, the Ermitage Saint-Joseph, the Roche du Tétras, the Chêne de la Chapelle and the Rocher des Corbeaux. Most of the route runs through woodland. The main viewpoints are largely concentrated towards the end of the walk, but the route offers several points of interest to liven up the day.
