The thousand ponds starting from Mélisey
A very beautiful hike to do with the family to discover or rediscover foxgloves, which are the local flower in June, and stroll around the ponds. Leave a car at the Parc de la Praille car park at the end of the circular hike to avoid finishing the circular with 1.5 km of uninteresting and disappointing road compared to the rest.
Feedback from several hikers reports poorly marked paths that are difficult to find or completely abandoned.
