Very quiet place, very pleasant stone bench to admire the pond.

The Cascade du Géhard is located near Girmont-Val-d’Ajol in the southern Vosges mountains at an altitude of about 500 meters. The Géhard plunges here over several stages and through potholes washed out by the water. Below the cascade, a picturesque stone arch bridge spans the stream. The site is accessible via marked hiking trails and can be easily combined with a hike around Girmont-Val-d’Ajo

The Faymont waterfall is located near Le Val-d’Ajol in the Vosges. The Dréhart stream plunges around 20 meters in several cascades through a wooded granite area. The lowest fall, 2.5 meters high, flows into a small basin that formerly served as a water reservoir for a sawmill. The Cascade de Faymont has been a nature reserve since 1910.

Easy access with nearby parking and a picnic table. There's an information panel. The waterfall itself isn't particularly impressive, but the site offers marked hiking trails along the stream (very pretty with its rocks forming small waterfalls), for example. Note that in wet and rainy weather, the surrounding area can be slippery (moss, grass, leaves, and rocks). So keep a close eye on children!

Easy to access, by bike for my part. Not very far from the main road. A beautiful waterfall especially in spring with a retention basin at its base

Faymont Waterfall is a charming waterfall located in a hiking environment. A nine-kilometer circuit with a 250-meter elevation gain can be reached from Remiremont. Otherwise, the waterfall is easily accessible from Faymont.
