Far from any urbanization, Amenoncourt is a rural town with a low population density. This is what makes all the charm of its landscapes.

More than the shelter itself, it is its location and its history that make it a special place. Beneath its modest appearance, the construction reminds us that Abbé Grégoire, icon of the French Revolution, certainly took this path to go to school in his childhood. Dating from the 1990s, the building was built in this location to take advantage of the site's point of view. The blue line of the Vosges is even visible there. If you are hiking for several days, this is the ideal place to sleep. The shelter being rudimentary, a tarp is however necessary to protect yourself as best as possible from possible bad weather.

As in many municipalities, the church is in the center. In addition to its four-storey tower and its gilded wooden altarpiece, it is distinguished by its pretty little fountain in Vosges sandstone. The ideal place for a stopover and to cool off in summer.

The beautiful Parc de Baccarat is located directly below the bridge behind the town hall. The benches invite you to take a break.

Just a nice shelter with a wooden roof, a picnic table and a great view with the Vosges in the background. The photo is on a sunny day but the shelter looked inspiring and I think it is worth mentionning if you travel on a rainy day and look for a place to rest. If you have a 'stand-up' tent (that can hold without pegs), there is enough place to pitch it inside the shelter and the surrounding walls can stop the wind. The road leading to the shelter (the "Voie de l'abbé Grégoire") is worth a ride too. Beautiful countryside and not too many cars.
