Trail Reviews
A truly beautiful nature walk in the Vosges du Nord regional nature park, near Philippsbourg (France). Departure from the car park on the south bank of L'Étang de Hanau. The literal and figurative highlight is the Château du Falkenstein, a breathtaking ruin of a rock castle from the 12th century.
