View of the Three Castles of Eguisheim

Highlight • Viewpoint

In the middle of the dense thorn forest of the Vosges foothills, the view sometimes opens up to reveal delightful jewels. Among them are the three castles located on the heights of Eguisheim, symbol of the many Alsatian fortresses.

Wonderful hike on the Vosges with great views.
Recommended for children, as fauna and flora are well explained on illustrated material (but only in French). And very educational even for adults. 👍🌞🥾🥾🥾🥾
