Good to ride with a racing bike. The road surface is quite OK, despite what was written in a review below. Little traffic. Quirky gradient. Well, I did it once along the other side and wasn't sold then. Now I am, nice climb on the edge of the 'secret Vosges' and the 'high Vosges'.

Passages at 17-18％ and 2km in 12-13％. The surface is not of good quality.

Nice walk up from Le Thillot..very quiet..good view up to the Auberge de Morbieux..more difficult up to the pass..no special view at the pass..sustained effort for experienced walkers given the profile.

Very nice climb in the beginning you think I'm right here up and down but once you get to the forest part you know you're right. Just a few km through and you're up. Do not underestimate this is the steep side of the morbieux. The street name is called rue de morbieux. But a small gem!
