Mountain biking
La Petite-Pierre, a key town in the Northern Vosges Mountains, perched amidst the forest, offers a playground perfectly suited for mountain biking. Its trails and low mountain paths create a playful landscape with a constant alternation of gentle climbs and descents.
The loop starts in La Petite-Pierre and heads towards Erckartswiller, one of the charming little villages encountered along the way, like Sparsbach or Wingen-sur-Moder. The landscape is typical of the Vosges region, characterized by conifers, striking rock formations, and ruins, such as those of Meisenbach Castle.
Midway through the route, the elevation gain eases along the Moder River, a small tributary of the Rhine, before steepening again on the return journey to La Petite-Pierre. Once the loop is complete, don't hesitate to get off your bike and explore the old town on foot. Its historic gardens, castle, and beautiful panoramic views are well worth the effort.
