Hiking
This hike pays tribute to an important battle. It allows you to delve into the history of this region and better understand the presence of the numerous remains and memorials along the trails. The route passes through the battlefield of Frœschwiller-Wœrth and connects several monuments such as the Elsasshausen Memorial Tower.
The route is relatively flat and the landscape is very open. You'll walk through a very open landscape with sweeping views of the plain and the northern Vosges Mountains in the background. The route is very accessible, so you can combine it with a visit to Woerth. We suggest a walk around the castle and possibly a visit to the 1870 Battle of Woerth Museum.
The start is at the large parking lot at the northern entrance to Woerth. You can also drive there and leave it for the day while you enjoy your walk.
