The Étang de Hanau is located in the heart of the Vosges du Nord Regional Nature Park and covers 18 hectares. From May to September, carnivorous plants, various blueberry plants and dragonflies can be observed in the peat bog of the Étang de Hanau.
The Étang de Lieschbach is protected and designated as a nature reserve. A small wooden footbridge at the Étang de Lieschbach allows visitors to observe dragonflies close to the water.
