Wettstein Pass 880 m

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Col du Wettstein (880 m) is a historic mountain pass in the Vosges Mountains, located between Orbey and Soultzeren, and is a gateway to some of the most beautiful hiking and cycling routes in the Ballons des Vosges Regional Nature Park. The climb from Soultzeren is 6.8 km long with an average gradient of 5.5%, and offers a peaceful, green setting with beautiful views over the valley. At the summit you will find the Wettstein French Military Cemetery, an impressive memorial to those who fell in the First World War.

The Cimetière Militaire Français du Wettstein, located on the Col du Wettstein near Orbey, is an impressive French military cemetery from the First World War. It contains the remains of 3,535 French soldiers, mainly chasseurs alpins, who died during the fierce fighting at Le Linge in 1915. Many of them are buried in two ossuaries. The site is marked by a monumental cross with the inscription "PAX" and a bronze statue of a dying soldier, which gives the whole a subdued and poignant atmosphere. This necropolis, also known as the "cemetery of the chasseurs", is a silent witness to the horrors of war and a place of reflection in the middle of the mountain landscape.
