This route, marked by the Club Vosgien with a red ring, gives (too) much prominence to carriageways and sections of road, making it ideal for groups. Sometimes very stony, especially in the southern sector of Hohengoeft, it requires good footwear. It offers beautiful panoramic views and is a lovely walk to do in the off-season or when the temperature is not too high, as it is almost exclusively in the open.

A short, easy walk offering beautiful views of the Vosges, the Alsace plain and the Kochersberg. Can be shortened to 6 or 8 km without difficulty.

You can also see the chapel of Himmolsheim, which was a small hamlet of about ten houses. This 12th-century chapel is also known as the Chapel of Saint Margaret.

A pleasant hike of moderate difficulty, culminating in the magnificent Lichtenberg Castle. You will walk mainly on paths and through a deciduous forest, enjoying the early spring sunshine but staying in the shade in summer.

A pleasant hike to stretch your legs. Ideal in early May when nature is waking up. Passes by an impressive rocky outcrop (beautiful view) and caves.
