En moins de 45 minutes depuis le centre de Bruy\u00e8res, le sentier du mont Avison monte en faisant le tour du mont \u2014 les versants changent de v\u00e9g\u00e9tation au fil de la boucle, une progression visible \u00e0 l’\u0153il nu. Sur les flancs, en \u00e9t\u00e9, les brimbelles (c’est le nom vosgien des myrtilles) ponctuent le chemin.<\/p>\n
La tour elle-m\u00eame mesure 15 m\u00e8tres. B\u00e2tie en gr\u00e8s des Vosges en 1900, elle a \u00e9t\u00e9 touch\u00e9e par les bombardements d’octobre 1944 et r\u00e9par\u00e9e en 1957. On y monte pour le panorama \u00e0 360\u00b0 : les deux vall\u00e9es apparaissent simultan\u00e9ment, et une table d’orientation en bronze \u2014 offerte par le Club alpin en 1898, port\u00e9e disparue pendant des d\u00e9cennies, puis retrouv\u00e9e chez un habitant et remise en place \u2014 aide \u00e0 nommer les sommets autour.<\/p>\n
Avant d’arriver au sommet, on longe la Chapelle Notre-Dame-de-la-Roche sur le versant. Anecdote pour les curieux : l’Arent\u00e8le, petite rivi\u00e8re du secteur, prend sa source sur le flanc nord de ce m\u00eame mont.<\/p>\n
Le circuit complet depuis la place Stanislas fait 3,8 km avec environ 130 m de d\u00e9nivel\u00e9. Avec de jeunes enfants ou des seniors, le d\u00e9part alternatif depuis la rue de l’Avison (direction H\u00f4pital depuis le centre, petit parking avant la barri\u00e8re foresti\u00e8re) r\u00e9duit la mont\u00e9e \u00e0 1,2 km environ. La barri\u00e8re bloque les voitures au-del\u00e0 du parking : inutile de chercher \u00e0 avancer.<\/p>\n
Le site est gratuit, ouvert toute l’ann\u00e9e, et accessible \u00e0 pied depuis la gare de Bruy\u00e8res. Pr\u00e9voir de quoi pique-niquer en haut : aucune restauration sur place.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":6488,"template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"class_list":["post-6498","decouverte-vosges","type-decouverte-vosges","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vosges-grandeur-nature.fr\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/decouverte-vosges\/6498","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vosges-grandeur-nature.fr\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/decouverte-vosges"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vosges-grandeur-nature.fr\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/decouverte-vosges"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vosges-grandeur-nature.fr\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6488"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vosges-grandeur-nature.fr\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6498"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
