Nice climb with notable variations in gradient, with a section at 10%, a flat and then a final bend at 7%. The main attraction is access to Château du Fleckenstein (bike racks available at the site entrance), one of the most spectacular troglodyte castles in the Northern Vosges.... read more

Nice climb with notable variations in gradient, with a section at 10%, a flat and then a final bend at 7%. The main attraction is access to Château du Fleckenstein (bike racks available at the site entrance), one of the most spectacular troglodyte castles in the Northern Vosges.

Belle montée présentant des variations de pentes notables avec une portion à 10%, un replat puis une dernière courbure à 7%. Le principal interêt est l'accès au château du Fleckenstein (portes-vélos disponibles à l'entrée du site), l'un des plus spectaculaires châteaux troglodytiques des Vosges du Nord.
