The Mountain Hiker, spacious 5* holiday apartment for 2-3 people. Terrace & garden corner, gazebo, Quiet & Nature with a view.
Vacation rental in La Vancelle in Alsace, a quiet garden village on the southern side of the Vosges mountain. View of Haut-Koenigsbourg Castle. Small terrace in the garden with gazebo. Exceptional environment.

Hidden in a setting of magnificent forests, it is a haven of peace and nature. And yet, it is easy to access and ideally located, far from the crowd but only a few minutes from the wine route, wine villages and major tourist attractions such as the Aigles fly, the Monkey Mountain and the Château du Haut-Koenigsbourg.

The Mountain Hiker is a large apartment with a lot of charm and romance. It occupies the entire first floor of our main residence, a large architect’s house from 1929, completely restored and hidden in a large garden.
It is a very comfortable apartment for 2/3 people furnished with ecological and natural materials. It is on the first floor, facing south with a view of the Château du Haut Koenigsbourg. Charm, elegance and calm in any season.

Our garden and its old orchard are part of a preserved natural space. There are many birds: tits of all kinds, blackbirds, but also the green woodpecker, woodpecker and woodpecker, the sitelle, the the jeag and many others. Squirrels regularly come to have fun in our trees. On summer nights, the houl of the owl resonates in the immensity of the forest. In the autumn, the deer’s bram is heard in the mountain…
