🥾 Walking through stunning landscapes

Hungry for a breath of fresh air? Head for the Défilé de Straiture, between Ban-sur-Meurthe-Clefcy and Plainfaing. This rare spot is home to a cold microclimate with vegetation worthy of peat bogs. The trail immerses you in a unique atmosphere.

Another mysterious place: the Champ de Roches at Barbey-Seroux. This huge field covered in granite boulders is a remnant of the last ice ages. For breathtaking views, climb up to la Tête des Cuveaux in Éloyes. From this vantage point, the Moselle valley unfolds before you in absolute calm. The rocks engraved with small hollows (called cupules) add an almost magical touch to the place.

🌳 Fun and learning in the heart of nature

In Épinal, l'Ardoise Verte is an ideal place for young and old alike. A plant maze in the middle of nature! Perfect for learning while having fun.

At Plombières-les-Bains, the terraced gardens take you on a discovery of organic plants and vegetables, all with a magnificent view of the spa town. A peaceful place full of charm.

🏰 History and heritage like no other

The Vosges also has a rich history. At Vioménil, set off to meet the Source of the Saône. This amazing place marks the separation between the waters that join the North Sea and those that go towards the Mediterranean.

The Pont Tatal, at Claudon, is a former military railway bridge that has become a bungee jumping and climbing spot. Thrills guaranteed!

At Plainfaing, the Théâtre de Verdure hosts shows all summer long in a warm, natural setting. A great way to combine culture and nature.

💎 Treasures from the past

At Val-d'Ajol, set off on the chalot trail. These small old buildings, made entirely of wood, were once used to store crops away from rodents. There are still over a hundred of them to be found!

At Mont-les-Neufchâteau, the Fort de Bourlémont plunges you into the military history of the 19th century. Today, you can follow fun trails through its galleries and observe the local flora and fauna.

🔮 Places of legend and mystery


The Lac de la Maix, in Vexaincourt, is a mysterious place surrounded by legends. It is said to be charged with energy. It is ideal for a meditative or spiritual break.

Finally, in Épinal, the Chinese Tower, built in 1804, overlooks the town. In the past, it served as a staircase between the house of a Receiver General and the gardens of the château. Today, its unexpected architecture continues to intrigue.

✨ A holiday out of the ordinary


The Vosges is much more than just a natural backdrop: it's a land full of surprises, mysteries, history and beauty. By choosing an unusual holiday, you can treat yourself to a moment apart, between peace, discovery and wonder.
