March 8, 2026, Rocher des Celtes

The Rocher des Celtes ("Celtic Rock") is a natural rock formation near Dambach-la-Ville in Alsace. Its name comes from legends that attribute a connection to its Celtic past. Today, the rock is a popular hiking destination with beautiful views over vineyards and forests.

Taennelkreuz Chapel is located in the middle of the vineyards at an elevation of 208 meters. This chapel was built in 1905 and dedicated to the Holy Cross on September 23, 1906. With a cruciform floor plan and a neo-Gothic style, it is located in the middle of the vineyard at the foot of the Rittersberg.

Rock formation with a viewpoint offering a wonderful view of the Rhine plain, as well as an information board about the Celtic stone.

At the end of the ridge, at an altitude of 443 meters, lies Ortenbourg Castle, built between 1260 and 1265 by Rudolf Habsburg and one of the most beautiful ruins in the Rhine Valley. A masterpiece of military architecture, with its high gorge surrounding a 32-meter-long dungeon, it is visible from afar and blends perfectly into the landscape. This dungeon offered six levels of defensive fire, and its pentagonal design allowed for better deflection of attackers' projectiles. The recently founded association "Les sentinelles de l'Ortenbourg" (Ortenbourg Sentinels) aims to preserve, expand, and revitalize the castle.

Frankenbourg Castle has been officially closed since April 2025 due to rockfall. You can only get within a few hundred meters. Unfortunately, due to the dense forest, you can't see it. Instead, I recommend the southern Chateau de Saint Ulrich, which is a lovely hike from Ribeauville.

Nice, quiet cycle path, a good alternative to the country road, but you have to accept a few more meters of elevation.
