A good climb up to Champ du Feu on the north-east side.
The road is okay, but has not yet been completely resurfaced (except at the top).
The first two km are easy, followed by 2 km that are much steeper (9 and 8%). In the second half, the gradient is generally 6-7%, softening as you approach the Col de la Rotlach. Above this pass a section of around 600m is at 10%.
Once you reach an altitude of 1000m, you can turn right as indicated in the profile (and reach Rothau via Struthof), or finish at Champ du Feu straight on.
The route is entirely wooded, except for the final section.
Up to the Col de la Rotlach, the road is calm.

Bonne montée vers le Champ du Feu par le côté nord-est.
La route est correcte, mais n'a pas encore été entièrement refaite (sauf dans la partie supérieure).
Les deux premiers km sont faciles, suivis de 2 km bien plus raides (9 et 8%). Dans la seconde moitié, le pente est globalement à 6-7% et s'adoucit à l'approche du col de la Rotlach. Au-dessus de ce col une section de 600m environ est à 10%.
Une fois arrivée à 1000m d'altitude, vous pouvez tourner à droite comme indiqué dans le profil (et rejoindre Rothau via le Struthof), ou terminer au Champ du Feu tout droit.
Le parcours est entièrement en forêt, sauf dans la partie finale.
Jusqu'au col de la Rotlach, la route est calme.
