The Vosges Massif, an Off-the-Beaten-Path Mountain 

Located in eastern France (in the regions of Alsace, Franche-Comté, and Lorraine), the Vosges Massif offers preserved nature, boreal peatlands, unique wildlife including lynx, chamois, and capercaillie, deep coniferous forests… not to mention its inhabitants, naturally generous and welcoming.

The Vosges Massif offers a multitude of activities for thrilling sensations and an emotionally rich stay: alpine skiing, Nordic skiing, free flight, climbing, horseback riding, adventure courses, diving in its numerous lakes, golf…

There are more than 18,000 km of marked trails. Many routes using bike paths, greenways, roads with restricted traffic, or forest paths allow cycle tourism by road bikes, mountain bikes, and hybrid bikes.

Let yourself be surprised by its iridescent colors, its gastronomy, the warmth of farm inns on the ridges and in the valleys, its wellness offerings, its cultural richness (medieval castles, military fortresses, museums, artisans), its unique events…

A beautiful "four seasons" destination to discover!!!
