The nearby forests are located in the nature reserve «Parc naturel régional des Ballons des Vosges». Here, man hardly intervenes and the forest is largely left to its own. The wild trees overgrown with moss surrounded by countless small lakes of the «Plateau des Mille Étangs» leaves a mystical impression.
