Hiking: Bettlach casemates trail and St-Brice chapel
Discover the village of Bettlach, facing due south, which enjoys a superb panorama over the Alsatian Jura massif. Its forest also hosts vestiges of the Maginot line presented through interesting panels. This line of defense, despite the efforts it will have made, played an ephemeral role during the Second World War. The walk then reaches the Saint Brice chapel, on the heights of Oltingue, mentioned in the XNUMXth century where you can eat in season in the inn which adjoins it.
