Hiking: Ferrette The castle and the dwarven cave
This hike around Ferrette, the great classic, is the opportunity to visit the ruined castle and the city of the powerful counts of Ferrette. Narrow and romantic trails lead to amazing limestone promontories and the mysterious Dwarf Cave, where a famous legend is told. The route can be extended to include the Rossberg panoramic tower and complete an 8 km loop. To do this, follow the blue disc Vosges club markings along the entire length of the course.
