Fine combo with Fourche. This one is slightly nicer in terms of scenery, tarmac is slightly less. Then again, it is a secondary road.... read more

Fijne combi met Fourche. Deze is iets mooier qua omgeving, asfalt is iets minder. Het is dan ook een secundaire weg.

A delightful two-stage climb. From Mont de Fourche you can continue climbing (or: 'start climbing again' if you were already on the Route des Forts) towards the southeast. After the first bend, you reach a group accommodation of a Dutch owner which, incidentally, is d.d. for sale - for those interested. Then it climbs on for a kilometre, outside leaf possible. Then a nice side-stage descent and then a slightly steeper and longer stretch of climbing. Beautiful scenery, very quiet road and here and there vistas to the Moselle valley. Highly recommended.

Een heerlijke tweetrapsklim. Vanaf de Mont de Fourche kun je doorklimmen (of: 'weer gaan klimmen' als je al op de Route des Forts zat) richting het zuidoosten. Na de eerste bocht bereik je een groepsaccommodatie van een Nederlandse eigenaar die overigens d.d. te koop staat - voor de geïnteresseerden. Dan klimt het een kilometer door, buitenblad mogelijk. Daarna een lekkere bijtrapafdaling en dan een iets steiler en langer stuk klimmen. Prachtige omgeving, erg rustige weg en hier en daar doorkijkjes naar het Moezeldal. Een aanrader.
