Alsace, which enjoys a particularly rich castral heritage, is also a territory that invites you to hike to attack its vestiges of the Middle Ages!
Along this circuit, you will discover the singularity of two ruins made of pink sandstone from the Northern Vosges.
From Niederbronn-les-Bains by car, follow the D653 towards Dambach – after Windstein, take the D53 towards Obersteinbach. Pass through the hamlet of Wineckerthal, then after a few minutes drive you will find on your left the car park of the 3 lime trees where your circuit starts.
