Very nice setting, among the grand cru vineyards of fire. Some 58 hectares of riesling, pinot gris, gewurtztraminer and a little muscat. The climb has nice curves but unfortunately lacks some length. Fortunately, you can 'm still carry on to Trois Epis that does come highly recommended :)... read more

Heel erg mooie omgeving, tussen de grand cru wijnvelden van brand. Zo'n 58 hectare aan riesling, pinot gris, gewurtztraminer en een beetje muscat. De beklimming heeft leuke bochten maar mist helaas wat lengte. Gelukkig kun je 'm nog doorpakken naar Trois Epis dat is wel een aanrader :)

A nice climb as a warm-up for the longer and tougher work in the Vosges. The experience of cycling up here among the vineyards and the beautiful hairpin turns makes it well worth it.

Een mooie klim als opwarmer voor het langere en zwaardere werk in de Vogezen. De ervaring om hier tussen de wijnvelden omhoog te fietsen en de mooie haarspeldbocht maakt het zeker de moeite waard.
