Hiking trail CDF06: Tour of the Champ du Feu
Belmont
Description
Champ du Feu is the highest point in Bas-Rhin at 1099m. Its high-altitude grassland and domed peatlands create a natural space that is fragile and exceptional in equal measure. The Vosgien Club built the belvedere tower at the summit in 1898. It is the symbol of Champ du Feu. There are many theories surrounding the name Champ du Feu (field of fire).
