A list of waymarked trails in the Bitscherland can be found here. This page is under construction. The list is therefore not exhaustive. Anyone who finds a relation that isn't yet listed can add it here. It may be advisable to extend this page to the whole of the North Vosges in the future.
Auf dieser Seite sind die markierte Wanderwege im Bitscher Land aufgelistet. Diese Seite befindet sich im Aufbau. Die Liste erhebt daher keinen Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit. Jeder, der eine noch nicht aufgeführte Relation findet, kann sie hier einfügen. Es könnte ratsam sein, diese Seite in Zukunft auf die gesamten Nordvogesen auszudehnen.

Sentiers d'excellence
Sentiers d'excellence (dt. Premiumwanderwege, « excellence trails ») in the Bitscherland were unveiled in November-December 2019. They were created by the Bitscherland's tourist office (OT Pays de Bitche) in collaboration with the Vosgian clubs to set the most remarkable trails of the region apart and help hikers find their way around. Further information can be found in the official guidebook (PDF).
