June 24, 2025,Wanderweg Les Roches – Krappenfels Runde von Le Valtin

A very beautiful tour with magnificent views. You should be sure-footed and not afraid of heights. Sturdy footwear is a must. Steep sections are all well-secured. Recommended in summer, as 80% of the trail is shaded.

September 26, 2022,Sentier des Roches – Kurzversion 🌨️🤨

A must-do tour if you're in the area.

It's also available in a slightly longer version.

But today at 6 degrees rain was also announced

And then it came

It got slippery, but the "bad" spots are all with handrails.

Otherwise you should be sure-footed and not afraid of heights

And good shoes

Chucks and/or addilets -> no way

September 25, 2024,Stosswihr: Sentier des Roches - Sentier Trois Fours

What a spectacular hiking trail! It exceeded my expectations by far, even in relatively bad weather. And that definitely puts it on the list of favorite hikes.
You should be sure-footed and comfortable with heights, although the exposed Sentier de Roche is well secured. But otherwise it is easy to walk.
The entire trail was wet, but it only rained …

August 15, 2025,Vom Col de la Schlucht über den Felsenweg

A short but beautiful hike. The rocky path is challenging, but there are enough safety devices to hold on to.
We caught a few drops of rain from a small, unannounced thunderstorm.

June 12, 2025,Les trois four

The length of this walk is about 8 kilometers. It took us 4.5 hours including rest. It is recommended to walk counterclockwise. The first kilometers a lot of climbing. Impressive mountain path. Then it gets easier. That deviates somewhat from Komoot's recording.😉

September 27, 2021,Sentier des Roches 🧗🏻

Final tour on a secured mountain path between Col de la Schlucht and Frankenthal.

The alpine mountain trail is considered to be one of the most challenging trails in the Vosges, so we definitely had to see it. 😉

May 29, 2022,Le sentier des roches

steep slope on the valley of Munster and the plain of Alsace, this magnificent alpine path with many ladders and aerial passages resembles, in places, a real via ferrata. The second part, through high stubble and beech groves, is easier.

August 13, 2022,La Schlucht - Sentier des Roches

Rock path (Sentier des Roches) is actually an understatement. The path is alpine with via ferrata elements and dangerous passages. Sure-footedness, fitness and a head for heights are prerequisites. But it is precisely these small challenges, together with the brilliant view over the Rhine plain to the southern Black Forest, that make this trail my favorite trail and "must do" …
