The LINGE is a first world war (1914 - 1918) battlefield, where one of the bloodiest confrontations of the war took place between July 20th and October 15th 1915, resulting 17000 deaths. Near this impressing graveyard there a museum.
The LINGE memorial museum displays French and German objects found on site: weapons, munitions, personal objects and relics. Models of French and German infantry men, scale models of the battlefield, photos, texts, maps. Outside you can walk over the battlefield with the  remains of the trenches.
Lac Blanc, the upper of two glacial lakes in the Voges Alsace France.

This is the “white” lake at 1050m altitude with an awesome 300m hiking possibility straight up bouldering for an awesome view.
The “black” lake, Lac Noir is a little smaller and at an altitude of 950m also a nice walk to combine the two. Good pauzing possibilities wit huts and Auberges for drinks, resting and something good to eat as well.

Both are now used for hydro-power-generation so unfortunately swimming is not allowed.
