Rocher des Celtes, Scenic viewpoint in Dieffenthal, France
Located in the Alsace region, this natural rock formation provides extensive views over the surrounding vineyards, forests, and the Rhine Valley below.
The rock formation bears marks of ancient Celtic settlements and served as a significant gathering place for ritualistic ceremonies in prehistoric times.
Local groups maintain the tradition of launching flaming discs from the rock during winter festivals, continuing a centuries-old regional practice.
Marked hiking trails lead visitors through vineyard paths to reach the viewpoint, with multiple routes varying in difficulty and duration.
Natural erosion has created a distinctive seat-like depression in the rock, which according to local tales was used for Celtic ceremonies.
