Taubenklangfelsen Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Taubenklangfelsen offers a great view of the Lac du Forlet, the Rhine plain, the Vosges and, beyond the Rhine, the Black Forest. It's worth taking a snack break up here, firstly for your stomach and secondly for your senses

Tanet–Gazon du Faing Nature Reserve

Highlight (Segment) • Other

The Faing lawn is a magnificent site due to the 360-degree view over the Vosges and its intact peat bogs on the ridges. It overlooks several lakes and at altitude the heat is less in summer, so hiking there is very pleasant.

Lac Blanc

Highlight • Lake

Due to a car breakdown I had to “emergency park” here. The destination was the Col de la Schlucht. Since I had to wait a long time for the towing service, I asked about the Lac Blanc area near Orbey. And lo and behold, a beautiful area. The ring went around Lake Lac Blanc (to the right of the parking lot). Through shady forests along the bank and up to the crest of the peak. At the top you were rewarded with a wonderful panoramic view from above of the lake, Vosges and the Rhine plain. I was totally fascinated by hiking above the lake with its rustic forests and rocky paths.
Conclusion:
Although the car breakdown was really annoying, the involuntary stop didn't happen. Very worthwhile. An absolutely recommended route.
You should be sure-footed, not afraid of heights and have good shoes, partly in alpine terrain. But it's doable if you have good feet.
At the end you can treat yourself to a cold beer or a juice spritzer in the brasserie at the foot of Lac Blanc.
Simply a great circular route.
Take your time and enjoy.

View of Rocher Hans and Lac Blanc

Highlight • Viewpoint

Exciting and challenging part, absolutely recommendable.
Start the Rocher du Hans from the Lac Blanc car park or slightly below.
 Something overcrowded in good weather who does not mind, is rewarded with a great view of the Lac Blanc
For me an absolute highlight!
Good footwear and sure-footedness required, not entirely safe when wet.

It's ideal for parking your car and climbing the mountains from there. From the top, you'll enjoy a beautiful view of this beautiful lake.
Unfortunately, swimming in the lake is not permitted.
