View of Rocher Hans and Lac Blanc

Highlight • Viewpoint

Exciting and challenging part, absolutely recommendable.
Start the Rocher du Hans from the Lac Blanc car park or slightly below.
Something overcrowded in good weather who does not mind, is rewarded with a great view of the Lac Blanc
For me an absolute highlight!
Good footwear and sure-footedness required, not entirely safe when wet.

Taubenklangfelsen Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Taubenklangfelsen offers a great view of the Lac du Forlet, the Rhine plain, the Vosges and, beyond the Rhine, the Black Forest. It's worth taking a snack break up here, firstly for your stomach and secondly for your senses

Tanet–Gazon du Faing Nature Reserve

Highlight (Segment) • Other

The Faing lawn is a magnificent site due to the 360-degree view over the Vosges and its intact peat bogs on the ridges. It overlooks several lakes and at altitude the heat is less in summer, so hiking there is very pleasant.

View of Lac Blanc

Highlight • Viewpoint

The lake region is one of the most beautiful in the Vosges. It is enough to admire the photos of the Lac Blanc to notice it. Walking through the Hautes Chaumes and seeing the lakes looming below is simply magnificent.

Comfortable, short round trip. Lots of beautiful views. The origin was a tour from the Rother hiking guide (#36), but we modified it and started from a different starting point.

One of my favorite tours. Unfortunately today it was very foggy in places, so no photo of Lac Noir. Very steep rocky climb and towards the end the path was almost impassable because of the wetness (mud).
