Kastelberg Snowfields Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

There are two springs on the way, which can also be seen as sources on the IGN map.
Other than that, the path is phenomenal. I saw chamois and horses this morning.

Panoramic view of the Bernese Alps

Highlight • Other

From the Hohneck, in clear weather, you can see the four-thousand-meter peaks of the Bernese Alps. Among others, the Schreckhorn, Finsteraarhorn, Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau are clearly visible.

The second highest peak in the Vosges Mountains, at 1,363 meters, is also the highest point in the range accessible by asphalt. While the access road is only a short side road branching off the well-known Route des Crêtes, the view from the Hohneck summit is well worth the effort.

Wormspel Combe

Highlight • Gorge

If the Hohneck is one of the most famous peaks in the Vosges Mountains, it's certainly thanks to the superb scenery of the Wormspel valley, which lies just a short distance away. The valley offers a breathtaking panorama of Lake Schiessrothried and the Wormsa Valley.
