The Grande cascade de Tendon is a spectacular waterfall nestled in the beautiful Vosges mountains. The 90-meter elevation change provides stunning views of the cascading water. While access isn't free and parking requires payment, the natural beauty makes it worthwhile. Note that dogs aren't allowed, so plan accordingly. The waterfall is particularly impressive after rainfall when the flow is at its peak.
