Fellering is located in the Ballons des Vosges Regional Nature Park and has a network of hiking trails marked by the Club Vosgien. It also has a launch site for paragliding and hang gliding, a swimming pool, and two churches with different building histories. The range of options therefore extends from outdoor activities to swimming and local cultural heritage.
Hiking trails and air sports
Two named hiking trails make it easy to compare their lengths. The Tour du village is a 6-kilometre circular route in Fellering. Also located in Fellering, the Circuit des Sites hiking trail is 8 kilometres long. The difference is two kilometres: the Tour du village is the shorter route, while the Circuit des Sites is the longer of the two routes mentioned. The Tour du village is a circular route; the Circuit des Sites is designated as a hiking trail. This gives you two specific distances and different route types to choose from when planning.
The Treh launch site is located within the municipality of Fellering at an altitude of 1,206 m. Its orientation ranges from northwest to southwest; it is used for paragliding and hang gliding. For those interested in these air sports, it offers an alternative to the hiking trails. Use is weather-dependent, so weather conditions should be taken into account when planning.
Swimming pool and architectural history
Fellering’s swimming pool has two leisure pools, a paddling pool, a diving pool and two 70 m-long slides. It also has two outdoor pools measuring 50 × 15 m and 12 × 10 m, as well as two indoor pools measuring 25 × 10 m and 12 × 10 m. The largest outdoor pool therefore measures 50 × 15 m, and the largest indoor pool 25 × 10 m. Together with the different types of pools and the slides, these dimensions give a clear overview of the facilities. Opening times may vary seasonally; check the current hours before your visit.
The churches also reflect different historical periods. The present-day parish church of Saint-Antoine-abbé is a neo-Gothic building; work began in 1874 and was completed in 1880. The Protestant temple in Fellering was built in 1913 and still serves as the parish church for the entire valley. Together, a late 19th-century building and a place of worship serving the whole valley as a parish church illustrate different aspects of local architectural and religious history.
