The pass connects Munster in the east with Gerardmer in the west and lies at the apex of 1,138 meters above sea level. Also this pass is a true classic of the Tour de France with meanwhile ten runs: in 1931, 1957, 1961, 1969, 1970, 1973, 1992, 2005, 2009 and 2014, the best of cyclists tormented on it. If he is not locked for the tour, he is unfortunately very busy.

The pass impresses with several possibilities of approach. From Colmar, the road is pretty busy. Here it is not recommended to drive, but to use the side roads at LacBlanc and then via Trois-Epis.
From LacBlanc (and thus from Bonhomme) it is wonderful in summer. Only the motorcyclists are to be considered.
From the other direction, the Route de Cretes comes down from Hohneck. Here with parking and many hiking tourists. But very beautiful.
The best part is the climb from Geradmer. It is not advisable to drive over the Budnes road (although the Roche du diable is worth a detour), but to turn off to the Lac du Longemer and take the steeper climb up to the pass road in purchasing.
The Col itself is waiting for a great summer toboggan run and a very acceptable restaurant.

The pass is known more for its name than for its beauty, as it is very busy. The road into the Münstertal is still a sensible descent, as it is well paved for the Vosges (and the traffic is less disturbing on the descent).
