The Park stretches from Alsace to Lorraine, as far as Franche-Comté. Gérardmer, a member municipality, enjoys a prime location for exploring the riches of the massif. Local traditions, artisanal expertise and natural landscapes make up a heritage to be discovered along the trails or country roads.

The Regional Natural Park offers a wide range of activities accessible to everyone. Hiking, Nordic walking and mountain biking allow visitors to explore the many marked trails.

The Park’s heritage is also expressed through its typical villages, historic castles and renowned vineyards. Local gastronomy, markets and cultural events bring the villages to life with the rhythm of the seasons. Nearby, the Acro-Sphère amusement park offers another way to experience the forest with its treetop courses.
