Romantic weekend: the Vosges for two

From the summit of the Hohneck to the azure waters of Lake Gérardmer, between gentle peaks and wooded paths, lovers of the great outdoors are sure to fall under the spell of the Vosges. Fancy a romantic break in the Grand Est with your other half? Head to the Vosges for guaranteed love at first sight.

A romantic night in the Vosges

It's hard to imagine discovering the Vosges without spending a night close to its vibrant nature. An intimate chalet, a charming hotel or a tree house... It's up to you to choose your romantic night!

Looking for something unusual? Don't miss out on a stay in a comfortable cabin in the middle of the Vosges forest. Tucked away at an altitude of over 800 metres, a perched bedroom guarantees an unusual night, full of emotion. And for an even more romantic stay, opt for the cabin with private spa option. The little extra that always makes an impression!

And if you prefer to keep both feet on the ground, why not opt for a typical wooden chalet? In the heart of the Vosges forest, it becomes a cosy little nest, with an uninterrupted view over the surrounding valleys. In winter, you can admire the thick blanket of snow that covers the peaceful countryside. Perfect for warming up by the fireplace with your other half!

Spa and well-being break: the dolce vita of the Vosges

A stay in the Vosges is also an invitation to relax and let go. Between lakes and mountains, enjoy a romantic spa weekend in the heart of the Vosges mountains!

To combine authenticity and relaxation, opt for a charming hotel to enjoy an exceptional spa. You'll enjoy a friendly atmosphere as you enjoy treatments and massages for two. Keep an eye out for the Vosges Ballons nature park, which stretches as far as the eye can see after a dip in the pool. And to round off the day in style, don't forget to drink a toast with your other half in the jacuzzi!

Finally, Contrexéville and Vittel are ideal destinations for a relaxing getaway for two. In these two spa towns, water is king and has a thousand virtues. Do you prefer massaging jets or steaming jacuzzis? We'll let you make up your own mind!

Our ideas for activities all year round

A romantic weekend away is the perfect opportunity to reconnect with each other. And a stay in the Vosges is often synonymous with reconnecting with nature. So why not combine the two?

During the summer, on foot or by mountain bike, lovers of the great outdoors can indulge in the pleasures of hiking in the Vosges. Accompanied by your other half, follow the wooded paths of the GR5, which crosses the massif from north to south, or opt for the emblematic Sentier des Crêtes. The good news? There's a spa waiting for you when you arrive! Just the thing to awaken your sporting spirit, don't you think?

Paddle sur le lac de Gérardmer

If you're lucky enough to be in the Vosges during the winter, don't miss out on a romantic downhill ski run or, even more romantic, a toboggan run on rails at the Lac Blanc resort! And for a snowshoeing session, head for Gerardmer or Champ du Feu.

And because there's always a reward after the effort, let yourself be tempted by a moment of conviviality for two on a wine-tasting day. What better way to get to grips with the flavours of the Vosges than to sample local cuisine? And don't forget to taste the Grands Crus* that will accompany your lunch! Cheers!

The unusual in the Vosges

In the Vosges, the unusual is hidden behind every relief. Keep your eyes peeled for tree-top cabins and domes at the edge of the forest... you're in for a surprise!

On the shores of Lac de Longemer for a swim in summer, or at the foot of the ski slopes of the Gérardmer or La Bresse resorts in winter, the Vosges can adapt to your desires to offer you a romantic and unusual getaway!

For those who want to get away from it all, book a night in a tree house. The promise of a holiday that reaches new heights! And if you're dreaming of a more bohemian stay, opt instead for a night in a gypsy caravan or yurt, right in the heart of the countryside. Donkeys, horses and goats will brighten up your stay!
