This pleasant hike begins at the edge of the Gérardmer lake. In the first part, the path passes behind the Sapins campsite and follows a road for one kilometer, before reaching the Bourrique waterfall, a very pretty waterfall.
Then, the path passes by the observatory of Mérelle, where the view of the lake is grandiose, then continues to the waterfall bearing the same name. The return to the starting point partly runs along the lake.

Was nice experience but maybe the map needs to be updated because my path always showed me walking next to what was shown in the map. The route down is steep and rocky so make sure you have proper hiking boots. Enjoyed it.

Magnifique rando ... Mais très technique a la fin ... Ou au début ça dépend où on commence 😉
