Tips from the Community
The Moraine de Noirgueux near Saint-Nabord in the Vosges is an impressive testament to the last ice age. Around 15,000 years ago, the Moselle glacier pushed its way down the valley, leaving behind four striking moraine arcs of rubble, sand, and gravel. The glacier at the time was about 40 kilometers long. A short educational trail explains the ice age landscape and the formation of the former Remiremont lake.

A site of both natural and historical importance. The Noirgueux site features a set of four moraine arches identical to what they were when the glacier formed them approximately 15,000 years ago. It also houses a memorial commemorating the liberation of Remiremont during the Second World War.

You have to know that there's a viewpoint here—otherwise, all you'll see from the path are rocks and you might carelessly walk past them, because they block the view of the actual viewpoint. Once you find it, you'll have a fantastic view of the valley.
