Northern Vosges Regional Natural Park protects woodland, wetland, farmland and historical sites in the Grand Est region of northeastern France, spanning the Bas-Rhin and Moselle departments; despite its name, the park contains no part of the actual Vosges Mountains or the Vosges department. It received official designation as a regional natural park in 1976, initially covering 120,000 hectares, and has since expanded to 130,500 hectares. Its landscape has also been recognized as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.
