One of the highest in the Lower Vosges, a Celtic and Gallo-Roman place of worship at Grandfontaine

One of the highest peaks in the Basses-Vosges, it reaches an altitude of 1,009 metres. It was a place of worship in Celtic and Gallo-Roman times. Even today, it has a sacred character and is the source of many legends. On the summit of the Grand Donon stands a Gallo-Roman sanctuary dating from the 2nd century. A building imitating a Greco-Roman temple was erected here by architect Boltz in 1869 to house various archaeological finds. In the end, it was the graffiti sculpted on its walls by visitors that took possession of it.

Le sentier découverte est bien agréable : une belle balade dans la forêt de 4,2 km (aller/retour) en 2 h 30. Il est aisément accessible et permet de découvrir un site bien conservé et entretenu, surprenant (belle récompense) et un panorama à 360° sur les Vosges et au delà, magnifique. L'aire de repos parsemée de relax permet de faire une pause sympathique et de profiter du paysage et de l'air pur.

le circuit est très sympa à faire, il y a un très beau point de vue en haut du col et le "musée" est splendide avec de belles photos à faire.
