    Hiking

    One of the sources of the Moselotte located near the Chaume de Breitzhousen. Christine of Denmark, widow of the Duke of Lorraine François II and regent of Lorraine, quenched her thirst there in July 1560. The stele visible here also marks the starting point of the circuit of the water cycle and hydroelectricity. Document relating to this circuit available on request from the Bresse Tourist Office. Site located on the edge of the Route des Crêtes which may remain closed for several days in winter, depending on weather conditions.
