The vantage point is the only bench with a table directly on the Sentier des Roches.

Notre-Dame des Chaumes Chapel

Highlight • Other

The Notre-Dame-des-Chaumes chapel is a contemporary Catholic church. Instead of a stained glass window, nature takes center stage thanks to the huge triangular windows in the ceiling.

November 2, 2024,Col de la Schlucht - Sentier des Roches

Attention! The Sentier des Roches is closed from November to April due to wildlife restrictions. And it is also generally closed to dogs, with a €450 fine. It is not known whether anyone is monitoring it. We saw several dogs, and at the beginning of November there were whole hordes of people out and about

Another beautiful hike that shows Alsace at its best. This time only 1 mountain goat, but lying on a snow field. That gives a beautiful picture. Lots of green, flowers and mountain streams. Beautiful weather, wonderful walk.

Most of the people here already know the tour well enough and yet it is one of my favorite tours here in the Vosges. It always belongs on the new program. I have already done the tour 4 or 5 times. It doesn't matter - it is always fascinating and never gets boring. Alone the rock or better the Alpine …

June 23, 2024,Sentier des Roches - Hohneck

Spectacularly beautiful hike on the Sentier des Roches. Certainly one of the most alpine routes in this area. Coming from Munster, the start of the trail is behind the first parking lot on the left. You should be sure-footed and wear sturdy shoes. Many exposed areas are secured with handrails. There are wonderful views time and again and the path …

You have to do this tour once. Rocky, stony, narrow, bridges, footbridges, stairs made of stone, great views, through a crack in the rock, etc. At the top then over a plateau, again with a great view, and stop at a farm. Well, if only there hadn't been so many people who came across the path about halfway through the …
