Tips
At 1272 meters high, the Petit Ballon is one of the most beautiful viewpoints in the Vosges massif. Its vast expanse of tall stubble and the absence of adjacent peaks allows you to dominate the landscape at 360 degrees, particularly the Alsace plain to the east with the Black Forest in the background.
Le Petit Ballon provides an authentic mountain feeling, with its Tibetan flags, its statue of the Virgin and its Vosges cow farms. This pleasure is increased tenfold after having climbed almost 1,000 meters of positive altitude difference from the Munster valley on the north side, or from the Florival on the south side.translated by
