Jolie table d'orientation !

What a magnificent tree! Unfortunately, it's a little weak on its right flank—but it still welcomes every enthusiastic visitor 🌳

Please stay on the paths

This rock shelter linked to a fort is that of the commander of the cartographic section. Inside there is a table, a stove, a bed, a telephone and electricity. This is where all the information obtained by the observers on the massif arrives.

Very old and beautiful oak tree.

Great view from a historic rock.

Magnificent bicentennial oak. A sign gives us some information.

The Celtic camp of the Bure is a fortified plateau bordering the Haute-Meurthe valley in the Grand-East of France. The plateau, now wooded, lies between the communes of Saint-Dié-des-Vosges and that of Hurbache, at the western end of the Ormont massif. This site, known for 23 years of archaeological research from 1964 to 1986, has been classified as a Historical Monument since August 6, 1982. The site has been inhabited since at least the Neolithic period. Then used intensively by the Celts and later by the Romans. There is a lot to see from that time, also because there have not been any settlement activities worth mentioning for a long time.
