Le Champ du Feu, the highest point in Bas-Rhin, is located around fifty kilometres from Strasbourg and overlooks the fabulous landscape of the Bruche Valley. Part of the massif, which reaches an altitude of 1,099 metres, is certified "Natura 2000", a European programme defining areas where the natural environment is to be preserved. The vegetation on this high plateau, mainly consisting of moors and meadows, is indeed as remarkable as it is fragile.
It's also the only Alpine ski resort in Bas-Rhin, with 50 hectares where visitors can enjoy sledging and tubing, as well as snowshoe hikes and dog sled rides. Cross-country skiers have not been forgotten: with its 55 kilometres of alternating and skate skiing runs, Le Champ du Feu is one of the biggest Nordic skiing areas in Alsace.
In summer, you can enjoy magnificent unspoilt scenery by taking a walk on the marked paths. To see it all from above, there's a 23-metre-tall observation tower from which you can admire a stunning view of the Vosges and the Alsace Plain!
In spring and autumn, Astronomy Night attracts many enthusiasts and stargazers.
