You ride along Lake Gerardmar to this climb. From 1 per cent straight towards the 8 to 10. The climb reminds me of a climb in the Flemish Ardennes (Belgium). Not long, but steep.

For the descent alone, you should include this climb in your ride! The percentages remain continuously near 8%, so you can do well to find a pace.

Alleen al voor de afdaling zou je deze klim in je ritje moeten steken! De percentages blijven continu tegen de 8%, dus je kan goed een tempo zoeken.

Included in round trip La Bresse - Gerardmer (via Col de Grosse Piere) - Vagney (via Col de Sapois) - La Bresse (via Col de la Croix des Moinats). Nice, short climb through the forests. The first 200 metres are a bit steeper than indicated on the map (>10% on the Garmin), but after that you can get into a nice rhythm.

The descent is easy with few turns and - especially the first part - good tarmac (at the bottom, the road surface looks like a patchwork, but it is still rideable).

Meegenomen in rondje La Bresse - Gerardmer (via Col de Grosse Piere) - Vagney (via Col de Sapois) - La Bresse (via Col de la Croix des Moinats). Leuke, korte klim door de bossen. De eerste 200 meter zijn wat steiler dan op het kaartje is aangegeven (>10% op de Garmin), maar daarna kan je in een lekker ritme komen.

De afdaling is gemakkelijk met weinig bochten en - zeker het eerste stuk - goed asfalt (onderaan lijkt het wegdek een lappendeken, maar het is nog steeds goed berijdbaar).
