Discover the Molières waterfall in Saint des Vosges
Located just 6 kilometers from Saint-Dié des Vosges, at the imposing foot of the Massif de l’Ormont, lies a natural gem of striking beauty. Accessible via a picturesque path through the charming hamlet of Robache, this tourist site reveals its charms as you walk along. The hamlet’s name evokes the stream that runs through it, the “Rothbach”, whose waters take on a reddish hue after the rains, a fascinating natural spectacle resulting from the sandstone sands carried down.
Exploring the heart of the Saint-Dié Valley
Near the hamlet, on the outskirts of Les Molières, an ancient path reveals itself, leading to a secret lake fed by pure water flowing down from the surrounding peaks. Ancestral stones littering the path carry with them millennia-old tales of this land, perhaps evoking the rituals of ancient Druids or traces of Gallo-Roman civilizations. Not far away, a graceful waterfall cascades down in a soothing murmur, offering a haven of tranquillity, while a small lodge invites relaxation and contemplation.
Continuing on, the trails wind through sandstone boulders, silent witnesses to the geological history of the area. Precise signposting ensures that hikers can explore in complete safety, with the promise of discovering the natural wonders hidden in this part of the Vosges. For those eager to explore, theTourist Office provides a detailed map of hiking trails, enabling you to discover the secrets of the surrounding massifs.
