Hohneck

Highlight • Summit

The second highest peak in the Vosges Mountains, at 1,363 meters, is also the highest point in the range accessible by asphalt. While the access road is only a short side road branching off the well-known Route des Crêtes, the view from the Hohneck summit is well worth the effort.

Trail Along Lac de Retournemer

Highlight • Trail

One of the smaller lakes in the Vosges. It is embedded in forests.
The inflow and outflow Vologne falls as Cascade de Retournemer from about 10 meters in height in the lake.
