A woodland trail on the paths and forest roads around the Côte de Plaine within the Vosges and Alsace with the highlight being the Chatte Pendue peaking at 899m. But what makes the site so unique is its unusual name that has all sorts of stories surrounding it. It used to be called "Pirre hhatte pendaïe" meaning tall hanging stone. The guttural pronunciation of "H" or transcription mistakes turned the "hhatte" into "chatte" meaning female cat.
