Vosges, France

Hohneck and Lac de Schiessrothried

A big loop from Metzeral: along the heights of the Hohneck, a break with a view, a rock high above the lake – and a night in the tent in the forest.

Meadow path and valleys at the Hohneck in the Vosges

What to expect

  1. Rocks looking far down to the lake
  2. More than 1,000 m of climbing – plan your stamina
  3. A night in the forest, easy to split over two days

Narrow, partly steep paths. Sure-footedness needed.
