Snowshoe outing to discover the Grand Ballon
Discover an unforgettable activity in the heart of the Vosges: a snowshoeing outing to the summit of the Grand Ballon, the highest point in the Vosges massif at 1,424 meters above sea level. This exceptional route, supervised by a state-qualified guide, will take you through breathtaking scenery, with snow-covered ridges, high stubble fields and breathtaking panoramas of the Alsace plain, the Black Forest and even the Alps on a clear day. A unique experience to reconnect with nature!
With departures available throughout the day - morning, afternoon, sunset or night - this outing can be adapted to your wishes and schedule. For around 2h to 2h30, follow your guide along the trails, explore a beech-fir forest and enjoy a stop at the summit of the Grand Ballon. You'll learn more about the local flora and fauna, as well as the fascinating history of the Vosges mountains, including the First World War.
This trail is an invitation to discover the rich natural and historical heritage of the Vosges. From stubble fields where Vosges cows graze, to historical relics such as the Diables Bleus monument, to sub-alpine plants that can withstand extreme conditions, every stage of your hike will be punctuated with discoveries.
