Description

<p>Black Forest and Vosges - the names alone promise a hiking paradise with sunny, panoramic heights, dark green forests and idyllic cirque lakes. Like twins, the two low mountain ranges form a single landscape and this Rother hiking book presents the 50 most beautiful and exciting routes on both sides of the Upper Rhine plain. <br>Markgräflerland, Hotzenwald, Danube Black Forest, Ortenau and North Baden, Alsace, Ballons des Vosges Nature Park, Lorraine and Burgundy: From the alpine climb on the Feldberg, the highest elevation in the German low mountain range, to the Grand Ballon, the highest mountain in the Vosges, from the Belchen, the "King of the Black Forest", to the Alsatian Belchen high above the Moselle valley and the Burgundian Gate, from the Kandel, the "witches' dance floor of Breisgau", to the Donon, the "mountain of the gods" in the central Vosges. The selection of routes offers something for every fitness level, while shorter variants for more challenging destinations also allow families with small children to hike the highlights of the mountain world on both sides of the Upper Rhine. There are also several multi-day tours on the most beautiful sections of the long-distance hiking trails: In the Vosges, this is the GR5 (E2), which is close to nature, and in the high and southern Black Forest, the two-strand Westweg can be combined into one long and one short tour over the highest Black Forest mountains. The third multi-day tour connects the Champ du Feu, the roof of the central Vosges, with Mont Sainte-Odile, the "holy mountain" of Alsace, on the GR5. <br>Each route is presented with an introductory characterization, a short profile with information, a colour hiking map with the route marked, an informative elevation profile, detailed directions and colour photos. The tour table on the cover flap is particularly user-friendly. It provides an overview of the length and difficulty, frequency of use, accessibility by public transport, cable cars, suitability for children as well as places to stop for refreshments and overnight accommodation for the individual routes.</p> <p
