The Baerenkopf is a well-known summit in the Masevaux valley. Located on the wooded ridge around 1,000 meters that borders the Territoire de Belfort and Haut-Rhin, it nevertheless reveals a beautiful view of the valley, especially in the months when the vegetation is sparser. A refuge is located right next to it, in a slightly more open landscape.

Above the Lachtelweiher lake, the Lochberg farm inn allows you to refuel with good dishes made from products from the farm. Its terrace offers a beautiful view of the valley. There is also a stele in memory of Francis Dollfus, who died skiing at this spot on January 13, 1935. E-MTB riders will also appreciate the charging station provided.

It was indeed a pretty little lake. We wanted to return there but had to turn back (Spring 2026). Access to it is now blocked by fences with warning signs and monitored by cameras. The marked trails (Club Vosgien) have been rerouted.

The place is excellent at the end of the day, just before nightfall. Especially when spring arrives, when you can hear the birds whistling while the forest is still in winter mode.
