A great place to stay overnight. No facilities. There is a restaurant with restrooms, but it's only open during the day. If you're lucky, the weather is clear and you can enjoy a magnificent view of the Vosges Mountains. You can even see the Black Forest and the Alps. Nearby, there's a hiking trail to the Grand Ballon, an air traffic control radar dome (a fancy word for hangman) with a panoramic terrace. The view is even more stunning from there!

Beautiful surroundings and views! Great walks for all levels. We walked to the radar station with a toddler. Easy to do. Very peaceful and quiet in the evenings. You can use the restroom at the restaurant for 50 cents. The food is comparable to a gas station; the restaurant on the other side seems better. Be careful with the threshold, it's very high. There are no amenities, but there is a beautiful starry sky.

This is a great place to stay with a beautiful view. It is very busy during the day but wonderfully quiet in the evening. If you drive past the restaurant there are more unpaved places. No facilities, not even waste bins, but it is free!! Be careful when driving onto the parking lot, the threshold is too high!!
