Le Grand Ballon (1325 m) forms the highest point of the Vosges mountains and is one of the most famous destinations for cyclists in the mountain range. Although the summit itself is slightly higher (1424 m), the mountain pass is located at an altitude of approximately 1325 meters on the side of the Route des Crêtes. From here, vast panoramas open up over the Vosges, the Alsace plain, and on clear days even as far as the Black Forest and the Alps. For cyclists, Le Grand Ballon is a legendary climb. Long and often challenging ascents lead from the various valleys to this iconic mountain. The final kilometers above the tree line offer an impressive scenery of mountain meadows, rocky outcrops, and expansive vistas.

Le Markstein (1184 m) is meer dan alleen een kruispunt op de Route des Crêtes. Het is echter een echte bergpas en het hoogste punt van de oversteek tussen het Lauch- en Thurdal. Het ligt in het hart van het Vogezenmassief, midden een populair wintersportgebied dat nauw verbonden is met de Grand Ballon

The Cascade du Bockloch is an atmospheric waterfall in Alsace (Haut-Rhin department), located on the wooded northeastern bank (right bank) of the Kruth-Wildenstein Lake. The waterfall is fed by the Hinterbockloch mountain stream, which originates on the slopes of the nearby Grand Ventron massif. Water plunges here via an abrupt, steep rock face about 12 meters down into a small, photogenic basin, just before it flows into the reservoir.
