Tucked into the upper valley of the Thur in the Vosges Mountains, Wildenstein is a place whose character is shaped by steep, wooded slopes and the river descending toward the Alsace plain. The nearby Lac de Kruth-Wildenstein, a reservoir on the Thur, introduces an open expanse of water to this closely folded mountain setting. Above the valley, the ruins of the medieval Château de Wildenstein recall the strategic value once attached to routes through the uplands. Wildenstein is a quiet base for walks, cycling and drives linking the Hautes-Vosges valleys with the mountain ridges. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding Vosges to extend your view of the upper Thur valley.
