Zittersheim walks
Circuit of the 12 springs of Zittersheim
A walk in the Northern Vosges forest around Zittersheim near Petite-Pierre in search of 12 springs.
These are small springs or trickles of water.
The best known is the Source de la Moder.
I couldn't find springs 5 and 8. Either they aren't marked, they've dried up, or I got distracted. Feel free to add waypoints if you find them, if possible.
Route from Zittersheim to Wingen-sur-Moder through the forest
A lovely little walk in the Northern Vosges forest connecting Zittersheim to Wingen-sur-Moder.
I fell in love with the forests of the Northern Vosges.
The Twelve Apostles Stone from Wingen-Sur-Moder
This hike, tested on 15/01/2022, takes us to the Pierre des Douze Apôtres (Breitenstein), marking the border between Alsace and Moselle. This stone dates back to the time of the Druids and was used for sacrifices before being gradually transformed by Christianisation.
