I liked this pleasant lake, its welcoming terrace. We wanted to return, from the woods, but had to turn back (Spring 2026). Access is now blocked by palisades with warning signs and monitored by cameras. The marked trails of the Club Vosgien have been rerouted. As a result, the desire to go to the bar was forgotten!

At the start of the long Voie Vert route on the former railway line between Dannemarie and Pfetterhouse, you'll also find the Dannemarie town sign with a small statue. From here, keep left until you reach the actual cycle path.

A beautiful, not too challenging climb on a wide, well-paved road. More views from the south than from the north.
