Explore AUBERGE ET CHALETS DE LA WORMSA in Metzeral

Leaving Guebwiller, the route joins the Alsace vineyard cycle route heading north, before turning west in the shadow of the Rouffach and Bollenberg hills to Osenbach. An initial ascent towards Col du Hundsplan takes you over the small massif to the wine-growing foothills at Gueberschwihr. At Husseren-les-Châteaux, a further, longer ascent to the Col du Wilsbach leads to the Château du Hohlandsbourg, a medieval sentienele overlooking the Alsace Plain and Colmar. South of Turckheim, the itinerary joins the pleasant, green Munster Valley cycle route. Take a gourmet break at the Maison du fromage to learn the secrets of making the local star. From Metzeral, the route becomes sportier, reaching the mythical Col du Platzerwasel, a classic stage of the Tour de France. The climb continues up to the Markstein, at an altitude of around 1,200 metres, offering unforgettable panoramic views. The descent takes you back down to the Guebwiller valley, along the Lauch river and the undeniably charming lake of the same name.

This cycle route between Metzeral and Wintzenheim allows you to discover a product that has made the valley world-famous. To this day, Munster cheese is still produced in the tradition and passion of the men and women who have shaped this land. Rounded summits, high stubble fields, steep slopes and glacial lakes will accompany you on your discovery of the Vosges Massif.

Start at the foot of the Panoramic reception building. Take the path beside the resort's technical building, which houses the snow groomers and snowmaking facilities, towards the Bronner ski lift, where you cross the line (with care, watch out for the poles on the way up and down!). A nice climb up to the Platzerwasel pass before starting your descent into the Widenbach forest, with beautiful views of the Vosges ridges at times! You'll arrive at the Schnepfenried farm inn at the other end of the ski area. Return to the heart of the resort to finish your loop around the Schnepf!

Start at the foot of the covered access to the Panoramic reception building. Drive along the resort's main road and parking lots before turning right onto the access road to the Deybach farmhouse inn. Walk past the inn and then, at the end of the parking lot, take the path along the edge of the forest, which will take you down to the bottom of the hill, where you can walk around the thatch. Return to the Grand Hêtre farm before returning to your starting point.

Stages 9 to 14, through the Southern Vosges.

The route of the water cycle and water power is a journey on foot, following the flow of water to the mountain lakes. Discovery through educational panels of hydropower and its usefulness.

Departure from the Platzerwasel pass. A short out-and-back circuit takes you to the summit of Schnepfenried at 1258m. All this with a panoramic view of the Vosges mountains and the Alsace plain beyond. In fine weather, you can even see the Alps in the distance!

Access: From Munster, follow signs for "Gérardmer - Col de la Schlucht". Once over the pass, take the first left towards "Route des Crêtes" and follow it for about 2 kilometers until you reach the resort parking lot. Departure point : Parking des Trois-Fours From the hut serving as the cross-country ski ticket office, continue on the access road to the inn before walking around the thatch to the Trois Fours belvedere and its view of the Alsace plain along the cross-country ski trail. Snowshoes allow you to travel outside the groomed tracks, thus avoiding the cross-country ski trails specially prepared for cross-country skiers. At the end of the stubble, you'll face the Hohneck, the third highest peak in the Vosges mountains, but perhaps the most emblematic! You'll then head towards the Trois Fours farm, before beginning a gentle ascent that takes you through the beech forests until you reach the top of the Schlucht chairlift, before finishing your loop with a gentle descent. Duration : 2h Distance: 5.4 km Difference in altitude : 160 m
